Política americana by Alejandro Calvo

Description

Política Americana by Alejandro Calvo is a political treatise written in the late 19th century. The work explores the evolution of political principles, especially regarding the relations between the newly independent nations of Latin America and their approach to international politics. It particularly emphasizes the significance of Monroe’s Doctrine and critiques the historical interventions by European powers in the region. At the start of the text, Calvo introduces the primary theme of the necessity for moral and political frameworks guiding the behavior of nations. He questions whether the newly established republics in Latin America have embraced their duty to contribute positively to global progress and discusses the historical context of their political relations post-independence. The introduction sets the stage for a detailed examination of key historical events, including military interventions and the establishment of international congresses, as well as the pursuit of unity among Latin American countries against external threats.
