IB History Topic Impact of US Foreign Policies Revision Notes (HL) | RevisionDojo

Background

At the turn of the 20th century, the United States had emerged from the Spanish–American War as a global power.
To manage its growing influence, especially in Latin America and the Caribbean, three successive presidents developed distinct yet overlapping approaches: Theodore Roosevelt’s Big Stick Diplomacy, William Howard Taft’s Dollar Diplomacy, and Woodrow Wilson’s Moral Diplomacy.
Each policy reflected modernization, economic expansion, and evolving ideas about America’s global responsibility.

Definition

Roosevelt Corollary

Theodore Roosevelt’s 1904 addition to the Monroe Doctrine, asserting the U.S. right to intervene in Latin American nations to preserve order and stability.

Big Stick Diplomacy (Theodore Roosevelt, 1901–1909)

Rooted in Roosevelt’s motto, “Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far,” this policy emphasized diplomacy backed by the credible threat of military force.
Roosevelt sought to protect U.S. interests and maintain stability in Latin America, arguing that the U.S. had a duty to act as the region’s “policeman.”
The Roosevelt Corollary (1904) to the Monroe Doctrine justified intervention in cases of “chronic wrongdoing,” asserting that the U.S. could intervene pre-emptively to prevent European involvement.
