Thesis: From 1945 to present day, socialism was adopted in sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America to try to stabilize these regions, but this stability never happened. Socialism was not as successful in Latin America, except in Cuba, because of interference by the US. In sub-Saharan Africa, the US was not as heavily involved, and so socialism had more positive impact. Outline: 1. Introduction/thesis 2. Adoption of socialism in both regions A.
