"The global reach of Latin America and Caribbean is probed and pushed in this work that brings together luminaries of International Relations that the Anglophone world needs to read more of. Whether from Brasília or Buenos Aires, Mexico City or Montevideo, the state agendas they study in relation to the Middle East and North Africa reveal the every-changing cardinal directions of foreign policy in a world where metropoles and margins continue to mix and metamorphose."
