HERRERA LEON, FABIÁN. Mexico's Support of the Sandinista Revolution: Its Interests and Political Use. Anu. colomb. hist. soc. cult. [online]. 2011, vol.38, n.1, pp.219-240. ISSN 0120-2456.

In the context of the Cold War in Central America, the article focuses on the support granted by the Mexican government of José López Portillo to the Sandinista Revolution in its confrontation with the Somoza dictatorship. Its objective is to determine the motivations and interests that drove the Mexican post-revolutionary government to design an "active" foreign policy in the sub-region, which would, to a certain extent, jeopardize its unique and ever less satisfactory understanding with the United States. Through this policy, the Mexican authorities sought to shape Mexico as a moderately string world power, thus reducing the ever present asymmetry in its bilateral relations with the United States.

Palavras-chave : México; Nicaragua; foreign policy; sandinista revolution.
