Isolationism

The next part of U.S. Foreign Policy that we will be researching is called Isolationism. Basically, what that means is...

Following our involvement in World War One, the United States entered a nearly two decade long period of isolation from world affairs. The result was not only a rejection of leadership and membership in international organizations, but a restricting of our borders and an anti-foreign feeling among society

Here are some links to help you learn more about this part of US Foreign Policy:

This is a very short unit, and should only take a couple of days. After that, we jump into WWII.
