Abstract
In 1918 on the initiative of the conservative trade-union center of the USA - the American Federation of Labor (AFL) -inter-American continental union association - the Pan American Federation of Labor (PAFL) - is created. Its purpose was to introduce the labor movement of Latin American countries into the mainstream of pro-American reformism, to include the unions into the common system of the expansionist policy of the USA. The course of the AFL in Latin America is best seen by the example of such countries as Venezuela, where within this period there was a regime of military-police dictatorship of J. V. Gomez.
