The paper asserts and attempts to demonstrate that the base of Dominican power rests on economic, political, military and social structures within the United States, not the Dominican Republic. Furthermore, crucial decisions affecting Dominican history (e.g., the overthrow of Trujillo, election of Bosch, overthrow of Bosch, U.S. military intervention, election of Balaguer) were therefore determined -within the U.S. structures and were executed by North Americans, indirectly (and covertly) and were at times directly linked to the U.S. government.
