Abstract
This presentation will focus on the role of Anti-Americanism within the populist politics of Latin America. The first hand testimony of such populist leaders as Hugo Chavez, Evo Morales and Rafael Correa and the analyses of those who have studied the impact of Anti-Americanism, populism and nationalism within Latin American politics will be used. Similarities between the studied countries and whether or not the presence of this Anti-American populism can be attributed to any, will also be examined.
