Darnton, Christopher. Rivalry and Alliance Politics in Cold War Latin America. Baltimore, MD: Johns Hopkins University Press, 2014. Political Scientist Christopher Darnton, an assistant professor at Catholic University of America in Washington, DC, posits two important questions at the beginning of this study: "Why do international rivalries persist despite incentives to cooperate, and how can states resolve these conflicts?" (p. 1). To answer these questions, Darnton examines what he views as causal relationships between international and domestic politics in Latin America and in U.S.-Latin American relations. In Rivalry and Alliance Politics in Cold War Latin America, Darnton takes a look at a series of rivalries in Latin America during the Cold War. This thought-provoking study emerged out of Darnton's 2009 Princeton University Ph.D. dissertation. Darnton's main thesis is that domestic interest groups have distorted national security policymaking for their own self-serving reasons. According to the author, the "major obstacle to rapprochement lay in the vested interests of agencies within the state apparatus (particularly the armed forces) and that the combination of an alternative mission for those agencies and resource constraints compelling policy tradeoffs caused rapprochement" (p. 6). Since one of the most egregious flaws of Detente was the inability of the United States and the Soviet Union to control their client states, U.S. policymakers were surprised to find that the shared threat of international communism and communist insurgents "helped some U.S. allies, but not others, to transcend their rivalries with one another" (p. 1). Thus, in an attempt to explain ongoing rivalries between non-communist states in Latin America during the Cold War, Darnton examines a series of case studies where some countries successfully achieved rapprochement and othersfailed. The case studies are divided into three main subsets, each of which merits a chapter in the book. Chapter 3 analyzes relations between Argentina and Brazil during the Cold War. By far the most detailed and well-researched component of the book (it is almost twice as long as the other case studies and has about twenty pages of footnotes), Darnton evaluates four specific attempts by Argentina and Brazil to achieve a rapprochement between 1945 and 1980. He explains that the attempts in 1947 and 1961 were initiated by democratically-elected governments and both failed. Although the attempts launched in 1972 and 1980 were both initiated by military dictatorships, the first attempt failed and the second attempt succeeded. According to the author, "the combination of economic crisis and the alternative mission of counterinsurgency during the 1970s shifted state agencies' [the armed forces and the foreign ministries of the two countries] interests from favoring rivalry to supporting cooperation" (p. 13). Since 1980, Darnton claims that Argentine-Brazilian rivalry (except on the soccer field
克里斯托弗·达顿。冷战时期拉丁美洲的竞争与联盟政治。马里兰州巴尔的摩:约翰霍普金斯大学出版社,2014。政治学家克里斯托弗·达恩顿(Christopher Darnton)是华盛顿特区美国天主教大学(Catholic University of America)的助理教授,他在这项研究的开头提出了两个重要的问题:“为什么尽管有合作的动机,国际竞争仍然存在?国家如何解决这些冲突?”为了回答这些问题,达恩顿考察了他所认为的拉丁美洲国际和国内政治以及美国与拉丁美洲关系之间的因果关系。在《冷战时期拉丁美洲的竞争与联盟政治》一书中,达恩顿考察了冷战时期拉丁美洲的一系列竞争。这项发人深省的研究出自达恩顿2009年在普林斯顿大学的博士论文。达恩顿的主要论点是,国内利益集团出于自己的私利,扭曲了国家安全政策的制定。根据作者的说法,“和解的主要障碍在于国家机器内各机构(特别是武装部队)的既得利益,这些机构的替代任务和资源限制迫使政策权衡的结合导致了和解”(第6页)。由于缓和的最严重缺陷之一是美国和苏联无法控制其附庸国,美国政策制定者惊讶地发现,国际共产主义和共产主义叛乱分子的共同威胁“帮助了一些美国盟友,而不是其他盟友,超越了彼此之间的竞争”(第1页)。因此,在试图解释冷战期间拉丁美洲非共产主义国家之间持续的竞争时,达恩顿研究了一系列案例研究,其中一些国家成功实现了和解,而另一些则失败了。案例研究分为三个主要子集,每一个子集都值得在书中用一章来描述。第三章分析了冷战时期阿根廷与巴西的关系。这本书是迄今为止最详细、研究最充分的部分(它几乎是其他案例研究的两倍长,有大约20页的脚注),达恩顿评估了阿根廷和巴西在1945年至1980年间为实现和解所做的四次具体尝试。他解释说,1947年和1961年的尝试都是由民主选举的政府发起的,但都失败了。尽管1972年和1980年的两次尝试都是由军事独裁发起的,但第一次尝试失败了,第二次尝试成功了。根据作者的说法,“20世纪70年代经济危机和反叛乱任务的结合使国家机构[两国的武装部队和外交部]的利益从赞成竞争转向支持合作”(第13页)。达恩顿声称,自1980年以来,阿根廷和巴西之间的竞争(当然,足球场上的竞争除外)已被“彻底克服”(p. ...)
