  The initial development of Latin American studies in Britain in the early 1960s resulted from the interest of pioneering academics in London and Cambridge and the Royal Institute of International Affairs. Alongside these academic efforts, the government's concerns about the declining role of British business in the region triggered the establishment of the Parry Committee in 1962. Reporting in 1965, this committee recommended the establishment of…

  Most research on British business in Latin America has concentrated on the free-standing companies, such as the railways, which characterised British investment before 1914. Apart from Royal Dutch Shell, the most important new British investments thereafter were manufacturing companies, which steadily increased their presence in the region. Some began to arrive before 1914, but several more made significant investments between the wars, especiall…

  In the 1960s and early 1970s, Richard Walter suggests, Peru obtained a salience in US policy beyond its significance as a middle- rank Latin American country. At the same time, Peruvian politicians came to believe that successive US administrations were singling out the country for treatment that harmed its long- term interests. What lay behind this period of turmoil? Initially, problems arose following the 1962 Peruvian presidential election, wh…

Counselling at the time of HIV testing involves more than obtaining informed consent and there can be an active role for HIV prevention strategies.

Therefore all efforts to r…

The main dilemmas facing these families are how, when and who should tell the adolescent about HIV and HCV; getting the right balance between the realities of the infection…
