Unearthing the bones -- Instilling the illusion of choice -- Political strategizing -- Behavioral economics -- Favoring old money over new -- Making the world safe for finance -- The colonial history of Belize -- Belize : party politics and debt -- Belize : recommendations of the IMF -- Nicaragua 1522-1939 -- Nicaragua : the Somoza dynasty -- Nicaragua : opposition to the Sandinistas -- Nicaragua : implementing neoliberalism -- El Salvador : the military and the oligarchy -- El Salvador : the war and its aftermath -- Honduras : the impact of the contras -- Fast-forward to a volatile USA -- Conclusion -- Bibliography -- Index.
A society that is reared on competition will face unsettling challenges to authority if it doesn't set certain functions outside the arena of battle, via systematic enrichment of the affluent minority that has always had the power to topple and ruin the system. Today's preoccupation with America's revolutionary history is not just a piece of theater. At the heart of America's outrage is an inability to lash out and demand redemption from the source of its distress because the pain is inflicted, not by hatred, but by the fundamental lack of stability built into our way of life. Now that a fifth.
