Description: "Intervention was one of the most dramatic forms of interaction between the third world and the United States during the cold war. In telling the story of seven of the most significant of these interventions during the key years 1946-1962, Zachary Karabell reveals in Architects of Intervention a complex interplay between the American government and third-world actors in designing U.S. policy in their respective countries."--BOOK JACKET.
