A master’s thesis at the University of Maysan discussing American-Honduras relations 1933-1980.

A master’s thesis was discussed in the College of Education / University of Maysan, studying the nature of the American-Hondurasian relationship and the nature of the changes that occurred in the role of the United States of America in international relations under the title (American-Hondurasian relations 1933-1980) by the student Nadia Abdullah Fakhir and under the supervision of Professor Dr. Lutfi Jameel Muhammad. The thesis aims to highlight the importance of studying the nature of the American-Honduras relationship and the nature of the changes that occurred in the role of the United States of America in international relations after events ravaged communism, placing it on the cusp of a new era of political, economic, and strategic thinking.
The thesis indicated that Honduras is a “banana republic,” a country completely controlled by American commercial interests and political decision-makers in Washington. Honduran General Tiburcio Carías Andino knew the extent of American economic interests in Honduras and realized the potential influence of the United States in the internal political affairs of the Central American republics. The thesis concluded that the study of international relations since the first half of the twentieth century has great historical and political importance. There is no doubt that human destiny has become, for the first time in history, dependent on relations between countries, which often witness changes that reconfigure them according to the rules and mutual interests between nations.
