RESUMO

The target of this work is the Alliance for Progress, an american foreign aid program to the Latin America countries. It was devised in the beginning of Kennedy administration and introduced in the subsequent years. The principal goal is to investigate the political and economical influence of the program in Brazil, emphasizing the U.S. ? Brazil relations, in 1961-1968 period. The operational branch of the American government, in this undertaking, was USAID (U.S. Agency for International Development). We analyze the actions among the american actor and the different brazilian bureaucratic agencies. To understand better this work, we divided it in two parts. The first studies the Alliance in the Jânio Quadros and João Goulart governments. In this period, the program doesn?t receive good acceptance, even though was established a confront and cooperation cycle which lasted until the crisis that overthrew the regime. The second part studies the american foreign assistance during the Generals Castello Branco and Costa e Silva governments. In the military regime first years, with the removal of the groups that doesn?t accept the american foreign aid, a more effective partnership was developed by the Alliance with Brazil. The program reached the apex during Castello Branco government, but in the years of Costa e Silva administration, several factors brought to a relative distance between the two countries. With the arrival of the AI-5 crisis the american aid was suspended. The President Nixon proposed new directions for the Latin America policy based in the Rockfeller Report, finishing the experience of a massive aid for the continental economic development
