"Recent years have seen a dramatic shift to the left in the politics of Latin America. This
renewed interest in Che Guevara's
ideals of Pan-American unity, anti-imperialism, and
humanist socialism. The
rather remarkable
change in direction of the region's politics has occurred
largely in
response to the [unpopularity
]
of the neoliberal agenda
of 'free market' and 'free-trade' capitalism
pursued by the United States Government,
the
International
Monetary Fund, the World Bank, and most of the governments of the
region."
