Subregion andyjski jest ważny dla wielu aktorów współczesnych stosunków międzynarodowych. Jednym z nich są Stany Zjednoczone. Przedmiotem artykułu jest prezentacja instrumentów i celów polityki zagranicznej wobec Boliwii. Do najważniejszych celów polityki USA wobec La Paz należą: wspólna walka z narkobiznesem, promocja wartości demokratycznych, zwłaszcza po 2005 roku, kiedy prezydentem został Evo Morales oraz wspieranie reform wolnorynkowych w Boliwii. Aktualnie, mamy do czynienia z rywalizacją gospodarczą o wpływy w Boliwii pomiędzy USA, Unią Europejską i Rosją. Ze strategicznego punktu widzenia, kwestie gospodarcze zdominują prawdopodobnie kontakty amerykańsko-boliwijskie w przyszłości
