ResumoThe article examines the views of the leading politicians: Jose Marti (Cuba), Roque Saenz Peña (Argentina), Rafael Uribe Uribe (Colombia). According to them, the main obstacle to the progressive development of Latin America were US plans to dominante Latin America. They criticized the Monroe Doctrine, firstly used to justify America’s continental expansion but at the turn of the century revived to assert that the United States had a right and duty to extend its influence and civilization in the Western Hemisphere. Their proposed measure for the preservation of sovereignty was to create the confederation of all Latin American states.
