On The Policy Of The United States To Bolivia ( 1952-1964 )

Bolivia, name after Simon Bolivia who labeled as famous leader in the war of Independency in Latin America, locate at the center of the island of South America. Since it gained independent status from segregating domination of Spain, the economic of Bolivia far lag behind with its emerging land dispute time by time and frequency regime replacement. National revenue gained a little, the social contradiction is quite sharpen as the resource tin which was considered as the major industry in Bolivia was controlled by America in a long term. In April 1952, MNR snatched the regime, created the first capitalism ethnic democracy regime in the history of Bolivia. The America government started pay attention to this revolution regime which emerged in South America during Cold War in early period. Eisenhower, the president of America, decided to carry the supportive attitude toward MNR revolution regime after carefully consideration. From 1953 to the period of Kennedy, Bolivia had received three times large scale Economic Assisting Plan from the government of America, Bolivia had become the country that receiving the most from the America per capital compared the other countries that accepted the assisting in the same period. After carried out the Economic Assisting Plan, the economic of Bolivia have been running on the sound track. At the same time, interior of MNR Party started detaching, emerging the policy crisis. In 1965, the Government of Johnson changed the policy in order assure the safety of strategies of America in South America through the way of support the Army Regime behind instead of replacing the revolution regime. So far, the research on this subject still lacking, I plan to reference to other research subjects, analyzing wholly and objective of the policy toward MNR Party revolution regime in Bolivia from the president of Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson on the basis of the America's newly decrypt documents, in order to revealed the real purpose of supporting the MNR regime from the America Government.This passage composes of foreword, main body, conclusion, Main body contain four parts Foreword mainly introduce academic circle from both domestic and foreign toward this task, outline the value and meaning of this task.The first part, mainly states that historic relationship between America and Bolivia from building the diplomatic relationship in 1848 to the erupting the revolution in 1952.I paraphrase this passage with three stages, and separately state the development process of diplomatic relationship between America and Bolivia before outbreak of revolution. As the economic power of America government boomed, the relationship between US-Bolivia before revolution comes from cold toward cooperation, America have become the major power of the relationship between US and Bolivia, setting a tone for unequal bilateral relationship.The second part, states specifically the outbreak of revolution in Bolivia and policy that America adopted. This part analyzes specifically the situation of Bolivia before the revolution outbreak, including the emerging and composes of MNR regime and historic relationship between MNR and America government. After receiving the commitment of compensate the Tin with nation-owned from the MNR regime, the America government acknowledge MNR regime in June 1952.The third part, states specifically the democracy reform that MNR carried out after they took over the country and the policies that US adopted. America government decided to support this regime in order to safeguard the interest that US owned in South America. Eisenhower president carried out the emergency plan and the plan of stable nation economic in succession, Kennedy president continued to adopt this diplomatic policy, implementing "Big Triangle" Plan toward Bolivia. The economic of Bolivia boomed after receiving economic assisting, but at the same time, collapsing the regime of MNR, enable MNR go too doomed.The fourth part, states specifically politic crisis that MNR faced at the end of revolution term and the policies that US should focus on. In the mid-term of 60^th, the pattern of world cold war seriously changed, Johnson president decided to change the diplomatic strategies toward MNR in order to prevent emerge the second Cube as the situation in Bolivia turmoil. By decreasing the amount of economic assisting and secretly support the arm, the arm regime replaced the MNR, which represent the policy that America government supporting MNR revolution regime gained success.Conclusion, Although three president of America carried out the different policy toward Bolivia, all of which demonstrate essentially the same issue with supporting the segregate of regime and planning subvert regime in secret. US do not accept emerging a revolution regime behind its strategy. The collapse of MNR safeguards America's role in west hemisphere relating to defense pattern, preventing the explosion by Soviet toward to massive land of South America, exposing the real purpose of America dominating the whole world.
