    How Did World War 1 Dominate The American Economy

    Iran initially established economic relationships with the U.S. because they believed it was their opportunity to stabilize their economy. However, Iranians soon realized that Americans did not respect Iranian culture, traditions, and values. Americans created these relationships in order to promote U.S. economic growth. These relationships exacerbated economic hardship in the Middle East by identifying the U.S. as a core country that exploited the Middle East for raw materials and labor. Therefore, economic policy played a vital role in shaping foreign policy in the…

    Controversy Paper on United States Involvement in Global Affairs

    A major debate that is being discussed both domestically and internationally is the involvement of the United States of America in international affairs. This debate includes the practicality of where the United States has intervened in foreign affairs, its right to intervene in the first place considering past mistakes and questionable leadership, and whether or not that foreign involvement is in the general public’s best interest. Obviously, the two sides of the debate refer to the ‘yes’ position, explained by Ivan Eland (as in yes, the United States should limit it’s global involvement) and also the ‘no’ position, backed by President Barack Obama (as in no, the United States should not limit it’s foreign involvement). Eland’s basis for his argument is that the United States has habitually overspent it’s treasure and overextended it’s military power to a point where we cannot keep pace economically and which could bring upon the demise of the American government as we know it. He also points out that continued foreign endeavors increases the risk of the United States being a target for terrorist attack. Obama’s vision is that The United States of America needs to re-establish its place as a world leader by maintaining an active foreign policy. Obama admits that mistakes have been made where international affairs are concerned, but that is a reason to fix those mistakes and step up as a suitable leader once more. Discussed later in the paper is my own point of view, which supports President Barack Obama and his plan for active engagement in foreign affairs, in a conservative and confidant manner.…

    Strains In The Unipolar Order And Multilateralism

    In Chapter 10, America Under Fire, two subtitles in the chapter are called “Strains in the Unipolar Order” and “Retreat from Multilateralism”. These two topics help the reader understand the tension and thought processes American had in the late 1990’s. The relative calm of the late 1990s affirmed Americans’ long-standing belief that the peace, is the natural state of global affairs, and that the spread of democracy and free markets would produce violent conflict. In addition to the unrest over globalization, a second source of tension confronted the makers of American foreign policy after the Cold War: the growing rift between Washington and the array of international institutions the United States had actively supported since World War II.…

    Effects of Iranian Hostage Crisis

    For most Americans, the story begins in 1979 with the Iranian Hostage Crisis, when a group of revolutionary university students took over the American Embassy in Tehran, Iran, and held 52 American diplomats, intelligence officers and Marines hostage for 444 days. But for most Iranians, and to fully understand the repercussions of this aforementioned event, the story begins almost three decades prior, in 1953. This was the year that the United States overthrew the recently established democracy in Iran, led by Prime Minister Mohammed Mossadegh. He had become very popular in the country for having the ambition to finally take advantage of the wealth that Iran needed to grow by nationalizing his country’s oil supply, which was for the previous 50 years under the control of the British Petroleum company. By proving that Mossadegh’s regime was relying on the communist party of Iran for power, and in turn not wanting to lose Iran as an ally in the Cold War against the Soviet Union, England was able to persuade the U.S. to assist in engineering a coup d’état against the new Iranian democracy and return Iran to its previous Pahlavi dynasty. Through what was named “Operation Ajax”, the CIA and MI6 reinstalled the Shah and instituted a pro-U.S. dictatorship of Iran that was willing to comply to Western interests in regards to the vast oil supply that the “British and American corporations had controlled the bulk of almost since their discovery” 1.…
