Based on the Run-Up to World War I, the Wartime

question 12

Essay

Based on the run-up to World War I, the wartime experience of America as a political and military ally of Great Britain and France, and the immediate postwar political conflict and disillusionment America experienced in trying to determine and establish its proper place in world affairs, why is it fair to say that the issue of Wilsonianism has dominated discussions and debates of American foreign policy from the World War I era to the present? How does the debate among American historians about Woodrow Wilson in "Varying Viewpoints: Woodrow Wilson: Realist or Idealist?" help you form your answer about the fundamental place of Wilsonianism in the debates over American foreign policy from 1914 to the present?
