Trade and Gunboats: The United States and Brazil in the Age of Empire

by Steven C. Topik

Book Overview

This book is the first study of U.S.-Brazilian relations that seriously examines the internal politics and economics of both countries and how they played themselves out in the late nineteenth century. The author attempts a new kind of international history, comparative political economy, that examines not only internal dynamics but also the nature of the international regime at the time.
