The role of theUSin the 1964 coup inBrazil is controversial. When didUSpolicymakers decide to support the coup conspirators, and why? This article reviews some recent works on the 1964 coup and makes two arguments. First, recently declassified documents show that theUSjoined the coup conspiracy only in 1963 not, as some claim, in 1961 or 1962. Second, many scholars do not explain the actions ofUSpolicymakers, or see their decisions as the inevitable consequence ofUSimperialism. This article argues that shifts inUSdomestic politics during theCold War, as well as the pattern of post-war foreign policy inLatin America, help explainUSsupport for the coup
