Aim: What was FDR’s foreign policy during the New Deal? Objectives Student should be able to identify the diplomatic problems faced by FDR during the New Deal.

Causes of World War II The Treaty of Versailles-forced Germany to pay $56 billion dollars to the Allies. The League of Nations-was not successful because the United States stayed out of the organization. The Great Depression-crushed nearly every major European economy in far worse effects than the US.

Introduction During the Depression, many people were focused on the domestic problems facing the United States so they did not worry about things happening outside the nation. However, the Depression affected both the United States and the nations of Europe. These nations faced as serious problems as the United States.

In nations such as Italy, Germany and Japan, new leaders emerged. These leaders built strong armies and navies. They also threatened world peace with their plans to expand. Before long, these new leaders would begin to drag the world into WW2.

Question 1 Why did Americans begin paying greater attention to foreign affairs in the late 1930s?

1. The Diplomacy of the Early New Deal During the early New Deal, there were important diplomatic problems to which FDR needed to focus his attention on. For the most part, FDR followed the lead of his predecessor Herbert Hoover, in that he tried to improve relations between the US and Europe and US and Latin America without becoming involved in either area.

FDR Foreign Policy

Question 2 Why do you think the US tried to stay out of the events of Europe and Latin America?

1.1 The Good Neighbor Policy Roosevelt uses the Good Neighbor Policy in an attempt to improve the US relationship with Latin America. In his first inaugural address, FDR stated, “In the field of world policy I would dedicate this nation to the policy of the good neighbor-the neighbor who…respects himself, and because he does so, respects the rights of others.”

The United States wanted to remain on good terms with the nations of Latin America. The reason for the United States to do this was to have the nations of the Western Hemisphere band together just in case they were attacked by a common enemy.

Question 3 What was the Good Neighbor Policy and what purpose did it serve for the US and Latin America?

The Roosevelt administration took a number of steps to achieve unity in the Western Hemisphere. (1)1933: US soldiers left Nicaragua. (2)1934: US soldiers left Haiti. (3)The US refused to intervene in Cuba using the Platt Amendment. (4)The US refused to use force when dealing with Uruguay. (5) The US and Mexico worked out a series of agreements in dealing with the growing Mexican oil industry. The US took part in meetings with Latin American nations. During these meetings, the US agreed that no nation had the right to intervene in the affairs of any other nation. In addition, the US and Latin America promised to work together if they were threatened by war.

Question 4 How was the Good Neighbor Policy followed in Latin American relations?

The American Lake Before the administration of FDR, the United States interfered in Latin America to protect American interests. The shadow cast upon Latin America shows the increasing US interference in the early 20th Century. FDR would change course by implementing the Good Neighbor Policy, changing policy from interference to respect.

Good Neighbor Policy

Leaders Helped by Good Neighbor Policy Lazaro Cardenas was able to nationalize Mexico’s oil industry and opened trade with the United States. Fulgencio Batista would be an ally for the US until the Cuban Revolution of 1959.

Importance of Latin America An area of trade for the United States. An area where the US could invest major amounts of capital in the region. An area whose blossoming middle class wanted to challenge those in power for control of the government. An area where the US can influence political, economic and social conditions.

1.2 Relations with the Soviet Union Early in his first term, Roosevelt tried to improve relations with the Soviet Union. Roosevelt decided that the time had come to recognize that country. FDR recognized that the Soviet Union had been in existence for sixteen years and represented 160 million people. The Soviet Union also was recognized by nearly every other nation except for the United States

Question 5 Why did Roosevelt recognize the Soviet Union?

Soviet Union The USSR map, flag and their leader Joseph Stalin. This was the nation formed from the Russian Revolution of 1917.
