French

Domaine(s)
  • Théories et doctrines politiques
DEF

Mouvement historique, politique, juridique, culturel et économique qui a pris naissance au Congrès de Panama (1826) et tend au rapprochement et à la collaboration de tous les États américains sur pied d’égalité juridique et de complète indépendance. Il a trouvé son expression concrète dans les Conférences internationales américaines.

OBS

"Beaucoup de publicistes [...] confondent le panaméricanisme et l'Union panaméricaine. C'est une erreur. Car l'Union n’ est qu'une des manifestations, la plus importante sans doute, du panaméricanisme [...] lepanaméricanisme est un mouvement politique. L'Union est une construction éminemment juridique [...]"
