This note reports on research in Latin America and the Caribbean concerning international relations and foreign policy. It lists persons in the region who are working on these subjects, comments on changing priorities in research by Latin Americans, broadly evaluates the quality of their research, considers the institutional loci and contexts for Latin American work in this field, and discusses the relevance of work in Latin America and the Caribbean to scholars in the United States and other Northern countries, and to those in developing countries beyond Latin America. The report draws on a considerable number of books, journal articles, and unpublished memoranda made available by colleagues, on correspondence with a number of Latin American social scientists, and on several interviews. These notes are surely not complete, and inadvertent inaccuracies may be included, but this version is presented with the hope that it will be helpful to others in its present form and that it may stimulate the submission to LARR of additional pertinent material.

Is Latin America a distinctive subsystem within the international system? Do Latin American countries behave differently toward other Latin American countries than toward the rest of the world? Although some scholars argue that "mere geographic proximity does not necessarily furnish the best basis of comparison" (Rustow, quoted by Lijphart 1971:688), others sustain the relevance of regional differences. In this paper, I theorize what differences one should expect between the determinants of bilateral intra-Latin American cooperation and the determinants of bilateral cooperation with countries outside the region. I found that a number of factors that are correlated with intra-Latin American cooperation show no relationship with cooperation beyond the continent: distance from the U.S., affinity with the U.S., and Spanish heritage are positively related with intra-Latin American cooperation, whereas the level of previous cooperation with the U.S. is negatively associated with current intra-Latin American cooperation. These determinants have no significant impact on bilateral cooperation with third countries.

Jorge Sàbato, the Latin American scientist, predicted that ‘either Latin America dominates technology or through other countries technology will dominate Latin America’ (Sagasti 1984). This prediction might serve to point toward one of the objectives to challenge our countries of the Caribbean and Latin America in the coming century. To understand how hard we will have to work to achieve that goal we might look at the barriers to information technology in Latin America and the Caribbean.

This chapter aims to analyse the forces behind economic inequality in Latin America and their connection to the processes of financialisation. The analysis of the link between the experiences of financialisation and high levels of inequality in Latin America is important because it highlights the structural forces behind the unequal distribution of wealth and income in the region. The processes of financialisation have also been observed in Europe, albeit to a varying extent and at different points in time in various countries. In Latin America, financialisation processes have taken the form of rising inflows of portfolio and direct investments throughout the 1990s to serve financial sector expansion and privatisation. The impact of financialisation on inequality is particularly vivid in the USA. The motivation to examine the distributive consequences of financialisation in the Latin American context arises from the fact that Latin America has had one of the highest levels of income inequality in the world.
