Abstract
This work combines multi-country archival research with a theoretical framework grounded in world systems theory to elucidate the relations between the USA and Central America in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Schoonover's archival research in Central America, Europe and the USA encompasses public, business, organizational and individual records. The text describes the role of personalities such as John C. Fremont, Otto von Bismarck, Theodore Roosevelt, Manuel Estrada Cabrera and Jose Santos Zelaya; the impact of railroad building and canal projects; and the role of pan-Americanism, nationalism, racism and anti-Americanism.
