ELIAS-CARO, Jorge Enrique e VIDAL ORTEGA, Antonino. Multinational banana and economic empire in the Wider Caribbean: 1900-1940. Rev. Esc. Hist. [online]. 2013, vol.12, n.2, pp.00-00. ISSN 1669-9041.
This paper aims to analyze the problems brought by the investments of the American Banana multinational corporations in the countries of the Great Caribbean Basin, mainly between 1900 and 1940. During this period, the intense economic activity, especially that related to the agricultural and oil over-exploitation, together with social and political processes made it possible for these foreign companies to enhance their empires and seek total domination of a region from a geographical and economic stance, without considering the region’s identity.
