Abstract |
This chapter identifies two processes that help to explain the relationship between the countries of Central and Latin America: The increasing importance of integration as a space to co-ordinate foreign relations within the region and the’Latin Americanization’ of regional multilateralism. Brazil and Mexico are the only countries that can act as positive hegemons for Central America. Brazil’s growing role as emerging global power has contributed to the expansion of its links with Central America. Relations with Mexico have traditionally been a key component of Central American foreign policy. Regional activity in relation to foreign policy is gaining ground in Central America and the majority of these regional foreign actions are carried out through Central American Integration System (SICA). The connection between Central America and the Caribbean is not particularly close, but two countries are part of SICA. The Central American region has lost the centrality that it once had during the Cold War. © 2014 Diego Sánchez-Ancochea and Salvador Martí i Puig for selection and editorial material; individual chapters, Routledge. |
