<h2><font size="4" face="Times New Roman"><span class="mw-headline" id="History">History</span></font></h2><p><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">The

Dialogue originated from the efforts of Abraham F. Lowenthal, who in the

late 1970s and early 1980s was the secretary of the Latin America

program at the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodrow_Wilson_International_Center_for_Scholars" title="Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars">Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-dem-dis_1-0" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inter-American_Dialogue#cite_note-dem-dis-1">[1]</a></sup> Together with Peter D. Bell, who at that time was engaged in The Latin America program at the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Foundation" title="Ford Foundation">Ford Foundation</a>, he approached <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sol_Linowitz" title="Sol Linowitz">Sol M. Linowitz</a>, former US Ambassador to the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organization_of_American_States" title="Organization of American States">Organization of American States</a>, with an idea to assemble citizens from throughout the hemisphere to set a new regional agenda.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inter-American_Dialogue#cite_note-2">[2]</a></sup> Linowitz proposed creation of an "inter-American dialogue". He broached the idea to <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galo_Plaza" title="Galo Plaza">Galo Plaza</a>, the former president of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecuador" title="Ecuador">Ecuador</a> and former secretary general of the Organization of American States.

</font></p><p><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">The Dialogue’s first meeting of members took place in 1982 under the auspices of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspen_Institute" title="Aspen Institute">Aspen Institute</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-nira_3-0" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inter-American_Dialogue#cite_note-nira-3">[3]</a></sup>

At first the Dialogue did not engage in extensive original research,

having only one or two professional full-time staffers. Eventually,

Lowenthal raised enough funds to convert the Dialogue into a full-scale

think tank with a full-time research staff. This, along with the changes

in the world politics, put the Dialogue in the advantageous position to

shape Latin America policy of the Clinton administration.<sup id="cite_ref-dem-dis_1-1" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inter-American_Dialogue#cite_note-dem-dis-1">[1]</a></sup>

By 1993 the Dialogue expanded and diversified its activities to include

conferences, working groups, congressional seminars, forums for

visiting Latin Americans, and individually authored articles.<sup id="cite_ref-nira_3-1" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inter-American_Dialogue#cite_note-nira-3">[3]</a></sup></font>

</p><p><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">In 1993 the Dialogue conducted a research into the role "external

actors could play in consolidating, deepening and defending democracy

in Western Hemisphere". The timing was deemed appropriate considering

"the move of the Eastern Europe and Latin America to democratic

government". Advocating "market-based solutions to the reduction of

poverty" as the force driving the democratic wave, the Dialogue was

eager to foster in Latin America "an economic model fueled by the

individual desire to consume and employing market-set prices to

coordinate with relative efficiency the supply and demand for goods,

services, and capital".<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inter-American_Dialogue#cite_note-4">[4]</a></sup></font>

</p><p><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">In 2005, the Dialogue released a report on Latin America entitled

"A Break in the Clouds", exposing "the many daunting challenges still

confronting the region".<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inter-American_Dialogue#cite_note-5">[5]</a></sup>

In 2009 the Dialogue released "A Second Chance: US Policy in the

Americas", the report prepared for U.S. policy makers in the wake of the

2008 global financial-economic crisis. The report openly concededed

that "popular frustration may lead to diminished support for democracy

and markets" throughout both North and Latin America, yet recommended

for the United States to quickly "gain congressional ratification of the

already negotiated and signed free trade agreements with Colombia and

Panama" while preserving "hemisphere-wide free trade" as a "critical

long-term goal".<sup id="cite_ref-dia-mono_6-0" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inter-American_Dialogue#cite_note-dia-mono-6">[6]</a></sup></font>

</p><p><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">In 2010 <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Shifter" title="Michael Shifter">Michael Shifter</a>,

the president of the Dialogue, and Jorge Dominguez, Professor and Vice

Provost for International Affairs at Harvard University, organized a

meeting with the representatives of the Washington political community

about democratic institutions and practices in Latin America. In

particular, the sessions discussed constitutional reforms made by Latin

American presidents, the growing influence of the Executive branch over

the Judicial branch in many Latin American countries, corruption in

governmental institutions and the challenges that it presents to

democracy, advances in terms of social inclusion, the effects of the

growing restrictions on the communications media and on opposition

parties in some Latin American countries, and organized crime and drug

trafficking and the threats that they present to democratic

institutions.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inter-American_Dialogue#cite_note-7">[7]</a></sup></font>

</p><p><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">By 2015 the Dialogue had become increasingly worried about the

Chinese activities in the Latin America. Its analysis showed that China

held $65 billion of Venezuelan debt, and that in 2016 92% of China’s

loans directed to Latin America went to Ecuador, Venezuela and Brazil.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inter-American_Dialogue#cite_note-8">[8]</a></sup>

In a 2015 interview Margaret Myers, director of the China and Latin

America program at the Dialogue, called the Chinese diplomacy and also

Chinese foreign policy "slightly more aggressive" than earlier. She said

that "partnerships in the region between China and certain countries

that would in some form have been thought to provoke the U.S. in the

past [are] no longer seemingly a major consideration".<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inter-American_Dialogue#cite_note-9">[9]</a></sup></font>

plenary sessions and in smaller workshops, probe their differences,

identify cooperative solutions to regional problems, and develop

Dialogue produces a policy report that reviews the main issues and

offers recommendations for policy and action–for governments,

international organizations, and private groups. The report is published
