Monroe's message proclaimed anticolonial principles, yet it rapidly became the myth and means for subsequent generations of politicians to pursue expansionist foreign policies. Time and again, debates on the key issues of nineteenth-and early-twentieth-century foreign relations - expansion in the 1840s, Civil War diplomacy, the imperialism of 1898, entrance into World War I, and the establishment of the League of Nations - were framed in relation to the Monroe Doctrine. In Jay Sexton's adroit hands, the "Monroe Doctrine" provides a new lens through which to view the paradox at the centre of American diplomatic history: the nation's interdependent traditions of anticolonialism and imperialism.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 223mmItem Length: 142mmItem Width: 19mmItem Weight: 346gAuthor: Jay SextonGenre: HistoryRelease Year: 2012 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
