Sommario/riassunto |
|
A chronology of the 20th century that demonstrates that the U.S. found the requirements of strict neutrality less than useful for fulfilling its policy imperatives. Contents: the change (the Spanish-American War, the Mexican Revolution, avoiding World War I); the interwar period (the League of Nations, Havana Convention on Maritime Neutrality, the Kellogg-Briand Pact, an isolationist U.S.); fruits of isolationism; enter the U.N.; postwar "peace" (the Suez crisis, the Nixon doctrine, the 1971 Indo-Pakistani war, the bloody Lebanese "peace"); and perspective. |
