Isolationism was a long-standing tradition dating back to the Revolutionary war, when America gained its independence from Great Britain. America was leery of becoming entangled with foreign nations ever since its inception. Wilson ran his 1916 reelection campaign on the fact that he kept America out of World War I. His reelection solidified the belief that the majority of voters wanted to continue to stay out of international conflicts. It was difficult for some to see how a foreign war could impact America. <\/p>\n 4<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Intervention in World War I<\/p>\n The sinking of the Lusitania<\/p>\n American citizens perished at Germany\u2019s hands<\/p>\n Impacted America<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Wilson\u2019s League of Nations<\/p>\n Isolationist figures in U.S. opposed the League<\/p>\n Lusitania Headline: Hulton Archive\/Getty Images<\/p>\n<\/p>\n According to MacMillen, Wilson eventually came to see Germany as a menace to society and the world, and he came to advocating to make the world \u201csafe for democracy\u201d despite being elected as an isolationist (1). The sinking of the Lusitania would become one of the events that began to shift America toward intervention. Newspapers reported the sinking with emphasis on American lives lost (2). The U.S. would eventually intervene in World War 1 in 1917. As the war concluded, the battle in America between isolationists and interventionists heated up. Though Wilson tried to advocate for the League of Nations, powerful isolationist figures like Charles Lindbergh ultimately prevented Congress from sanctioning the League. The war sent the U.S. even further toward isolationism, with Congress passing Neutrality acts and placing limits on immigration to further solidify the country\u2019s isolated position in foreign affairs. Norwich University offers the possibility that it was \u201cperhaps isolationist Warren Harding\u2019s election to the office of President that offered the greatest repudiation of the League of Nations and Wilson\u2019s interventionism\u201d (3). <\/p>\n 5<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Isolationism and World War II<\/p>\n Americans were leery of intervention in a second World War.<\/p>\n Long-term impacts of World War I on Americans.<\/p>\n Anti-immigrant\/anti-European sentiments<\/p>\n 1921 Emergency Quota Act, etc<\/p>\n Americans wanted to focus on problems at home.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \nOfficial Presidential Portait https:\/\/www.archives.gov\/research\/recover\/fdr<\/a>\n<\/p>\n \nCharles Lindberg Slogan http:\/\/charleslindbergh.com\/images2\/a3.jpg<\/a>\n<\/p>\n With the Neutrality Acts and general isolationist sentiments in American society, President Franklin D. Roosevelt was faced with many challenges as he attempted to maintain effective leadership during global crisis. Americans had many years between the world wars to ruminate on the pros and cons of global conflict. World War II broke out and many Americans held staunchly against intervention. America had a lot of her own troubles to deal with and many people were still harboring bitter feelings about World War I. In the Four Freedoms address, FDR warned his people that contrary to popular belief that America was safe across the vast sea, it was important to take lessons from World War I to understand how the second world war was a threat to democracy \u2013 and a threat to America\u2019s safety and future (4). <\/p>\n 6<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Interventionism World War II<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Four Freedoms speech \u2013 January 6, 1941<\/p>\n FDR tried swaying Americans away from isolationism<\/p>\n Warned about possible threats to homeland<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Pearl Harbor – December 7, 1941 <\/p>\n Americans mobilized, supporting intervention<\/p>\n \nWilson signing Declaration of War against Japan Dec. 1941 <\/a> In FDR\u2019s Four Freedoms speech in 1941, he warned about the dangers of the isolationist path and appealed to Americans’ love for democracy. He asked Americans to heed his prior warnings that just because the war seemed far away, it didn\u2019t mean it wasn\u2019t having an impact on America or that there was no threat to the home country (4). Eleven months after he delivered his warnings, the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. Suddenly, the war had hit close to home and became an undeniable reality fast, and Americans mobilized to support intervention . Though isolationist sentiments didn\u2019t fully disappear, many Americans came together to do their part to support the war effort. Some went to war and some stayed home and took on new roles to help the country and the war effort, forever changing the landscape of America. <\/p>\n 7<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Making Connections<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Leadership challenges<\/p>\n Weigh pros vs cons<\/p>\n Consider all consequences (both neutrality and intervention)<\/p>\n Neutral but prepared<\/p>\n \nThis Photo<\/a> by Unknown Author is licensed under CC BY-SA-NC<\/a>\n<\/p>\n President Wilson and President Roosevelt faced situations that made isolationist foreign policy challenging to uphold. American foreign policy during both world wars illustrates how difficult it was to balance the desires and fears of the American people with the presidential duty to keep America safe and prosperous. Today, President Trump often uses the slogan \u201cAmerica First.\u201d The United States still faces foreign policy challenges around the world; however, similarly to World War I and World War II, many Americans may feel detached from those entanglements because they are not happening on American soil. Then and now, America\u2019s leaders have been drawn into foreign entanglements despite isolationist and \u201cAmerica first\u201d desires. We should take valuable lessons from past conflicts. We should weigh the pros and cons and always calculate threats to America carefully and with full consideration of ramifications of both intervention and isolationism. When encountering conflict outside of America\u2019s borders, we should be neutral but prepared to react should America\u2019s safety be threatened. We can take these lessons and apply them to our own lives when dealing with leadership decisions.<\/p>\n 8<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Sources<\/p>\n Margaret MacMillen. March 16, 2018.
