Active Diplomacy to Achieve US Objectives 1960-1991, in Central America, Washington, Panama, and Argentina
FSO Bushnell relates his roles and their context, illustrating many ways diplomats work toward US objectives. Making the Kennedy Alliance for Progress and the new bi-national Panama Canal Board more effective and cooperative illustrate multi-year efforts, as do supporting the return to democracy in Argentina and enhancing a free market orientation in the World Bank and other development finance institutions. Losing in Nicaragua, winning in Salvador, and orienting the Carter Latin American human rights policy show the complex interplay of political forces in the US and abroad. Crisis management called for broad diplomatic skills in the Dominican Republic 1965, the Jonestown Guyana mass suicide 1978, and stopping drug money laundering in Panama (capturing Noriega) 1989.
