Abstract

war on terror was launched by the George Bush administration in respond to the attacks on September 11, 2001 on the US soil. The official term used by the US military, Global war on Terrorism refers to the various military, political, and legal action taken to curb the spread of terrorism. So, to what extend the new US ideological policy would influence its relationship with latin america? To be more specific, why should the war against terror influence its relationship and implicate the region to this process? war on Terrorism has changed the world according to Bush Administration; at least it has modified all its relationship, including latin america. In what 9/11 has changed the relationship between latin america and US?

Briefly, we should deem that the latin america/US relationship was quite improving economically and politically in the 1990's. Free from the strategic and ideological rigidities of the Cold war, latin america in the mid-1990's looked forward to a more realistic and constructive relationship with the US Improve their relations was one of the top priority of the American government.

US had hoped that latin america turn toward democracy and free market economy and it would lead to closer and more cooperative ties. Indeed, for a time, the Americas seemed to be heading in the right direction. The Brady debt-relief proposal helped end latin america's decade-long debt-induced recession. In 1995 a bold Washington-led rescue package helped prevent the collapse of Mexico's economy.
