South Wind Red: Our Hemispheric Crisis

By Philip a. Ray

Book Overview

South Wind Red: Our Hemispheric Crisis is a non-fiction book written by Philip A. Ray. The book explores the current political and economic crisis in the Western Hemisphere, focusing on the role of the United States in this crisis. The author argues that the United States has played a significant role in creating and perpetuating this crisis through its foreign policy, economic policies, and military interventions. Ray examines the history of US involvement in the region, from the Monroe Doctrine to the present day, and argues that the US has consistently pursued its own interests at the expense of the people of the region. He also looks at the current political situation in several countries, including Venezuela, Bolivia, and Nicaragua, and argues that US intervention has only served to exacerbate the crisis. The book also explores the impact of the crisis on ordinary people in the region, including poverty, violence, and migration. Ray argues that the only way to address this crisis is through a fundamental change in US policy, one that prioritizes the needs and interests of the people of the region over those of the US government and corporations. Overall, South Wind Red: Our Hemispheric Crisis is a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of the current crisis in the Western Hemisphere and the role of the United States in creating and perpetuating it. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the politics and economics of the region, as well as those interested in US foreign policy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
