Foreign Policy Differences in Selected Latin American Countries

Chapter 4 in The New International Economic Order, 1983, pp 89-102 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The Latin American and Caribbean countries were in the forefront of the bargaining over the New International Economic Order from 1974 to 1977. Some countries were more active than others. notably Jamaica, Mexico, and Venezuela, but many of the programmes proposed as part of the NIEO package had their origins in Latin America, especially in Latin American multilateral institutions like ECLA, and there was generally a high interest in the NIEO negotiations throughout the region. The Latin American countries had more at stake in the NIEO negotiations than other developing regions because of their middle-income status among the world’s economies. No Latin American country, with the exception of Haiti, is on the World Bank’s list for 1977 of low-income countries.1 This, along with the general variety of the countries in the region, makes the region a good choice for testing propositions about what explains differences in NIEO policies among developing countries.
