POL380: American Foreign Policy toward the Third World

This unit examines American foreign policy toward the Third World from the 1950s to the present. The first part investigates the policymaking process and those factors (domestic, covert, ideological, economic, etc.) that shape policy outcomes. The second part focuses on a series of case studies, including Eisenhower and the Cuban revolution, Kennedy/Johnson and Vietnam, Nixon and Chile, Carter and Iran, Reagan and Philippines and Bush/Clinton/Bush policy toward Colombia. Films related to topics covered in both parts of the course will be shown in some of the seminars.
