Abstract

For 400 years Europe sent capital and human effort to the Western Hemisphere for purpose of conquest, colonization, and economic development. Both political and economic considerations were salient and inseparable. For at least the last 25 years, however, the flow of resources has been reversed although the motivation of conquest and economic development have remained paramount goals. Again, political and economic forces commingle in the resource movement. Both political science and economic analysis must be brought to bear on the problems of both periods if complete understanding is to be acquired.
