Book excerpt: During the last three decades, Nicaragua posed three of the most difficult challenges faced by U.S. foreign policy-makers in the third world: how to cope with a declining, repressive, but previously ?friendly” dictator? how to relate to an anti-American revolutionary government? how to facilitate a democratic transition? The Nicaraguan challenge was to establish a democratic and autonomous government, with as much support and as little interference as possible from the great powers. This book demonstrates how an unproductive interaction led to both sides' worst nightmares.
