Why were many Americans interested in remaining isolationist?

History

statuscvo [17]4 years ago
8 0
The short answer: Americans felt that they had to focus on their own problems (economic, etc.) back at home rather than deal with other countries' conflicts.

The long answer: The results of World War I were drastically horrible, with thousands of soldiers dead and hundreds of civilians killed in America alone. Not only that, the country soon fell into the Great Depression -- which left Americans feeling more hopeless than ever. Not only did they NOT want to repeat history (the trauma of the First War was too much to bear), but the economy was in peril and Americans were struggling to feed their families and find jobs. Do you really think that hearing that there's this huge conflict going on overseas, that Americans are going to want to take ANY part in at first? No, not all. No way. Most Americans just didn't feel it was right to get involved in a foreign conflict when your country is dealing with enough issues at the moment.

During which decade did the us pursue a policy for isolation
vitfil [10]
Answer: the 1930s
Explanation: The USA watched carefully the rise of fascism in Europe and Japanese expansion in Asia, but did not intervene, There was a strong isolationist lobby and many had sympathy with both Hitler and Mussolini who they saw as leaders who were putting to rights, the problems of their countries, and were also important bulwarks against communism.
It took the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbour to bring the USA into the war and even then there was no guarantee they would have become directly involved in the conflict in Europe. It was Hitler who declare war on the USA in support of his Japanese Axis allies.
