{In Latin America, the United States behaved in the very way that Harold Pinter thinks it has always behaved everywhere.}
Clive James, in his book "Cultural Amnesia," reflects on the historical behavior of the United States in Latin America, comparing it to Harold Pinter's ideas about U.S. actions globally. He suggests that the patterns of intervention and influence demonstrated by the U.S. in Latin America exemplify a broader, consistent approach of the nation in various contexts throughout history.
Through this lens, James critiques the U.S. for its often self-serving policies, highlighting a lack of regard for the sovereignty of Latin American countries. This examination encourages a deeper understanding of how U.S. foreign policy has shaped relationships in the region, echoing the notions Pinter presents about the nation's conduct on the world stage.
