U.S. Foreign Policy Under Theodore Roosevelt, William H. Taft, and Woodrow Wilson

  • Teddy Roosevelt’s “big stick” policy: foreign policy in Latin America depended on strong military action to achieve U.S. goals
  • The justification: use U.S. leadership & help to maintain balance of power principles to “civilize” or “uplift” “weaker” nations
  • Roosevelt sent warships in to support Panamanian rebellion & Panama eventually declared its independence & U.S. took control of Panama “Canal Zone” & agreed to pay $10 million & annual rent of $250,000
  • Roosevelt Corollary: the U.S. would assume the role of police power, restoring order & depriving other creditors of the excuse to intervene (keep western hemisphere free of Euro. intervention)
  • Open Door Policy in China: The U.S. wanted access so they sent Secretary of State John Hay to seek trading opportunities w/China so it promised to respect Chinese sovereignty if they opened up trade opportunities for U.S.
  • Backlash against imperialism in China: the Boxer Rebellion
  • Tensions with Japan eventually led to Root-Takahira Agreement of 1900 that confirmed the status quo in the Pacific as well as the principles of free oceanic commerce & equal trade opportunity in China
  • Taft shifts to “dollar diplomacy” and Wilson pursues “moral diplomacy” in Latin America
  • The U.S. intervened to a certain extent during Mexican Revolution especially after Pancho Villa raided town of Columbus, NM, so Wilson responded by sending General John J. Pershing & 10,000 + troops into Mexico on a “punitive expedition” to punish Villa & his forces; they never caught Villa, however
