However, resistance has grown from the 1990s throughout the last decade in Brazil, Bolivia, Venezuela and elsewhere. After many years of advances by the left, there is currently a counter-offensive by the Latin American right-wing, with Washington’s support.
Can the United States regain its influence in the hemisphere?
Is regime change still a viable option for US policy in places like Venezuela?
