US Foreign Policy Responses After Hitler’s Rise to Power
Is there a “hidden agenda” of US diplomacy?
► 1933: Good Neighbor Policy (Herbert Hoover’s idea…) To improve relations damaged by “big stick policy” in Latin America
► 1933: Diplomatic recognition of the USSR Diplomatic relations between the US and USSR begin for the first time.
► 1933: London Conference to stabilize world economies; US decided not to participate
► 1934: Tydings-McDuffie Act Philippines independence by 1946.
► 1934: Reciprocal Trade Act Reduced the US tariff if its international trading partners did the same.
► 1934-5: The Nye Commission Government committee that concluded US involvement in WW 1 was
caused by “war profiteers” (“Merchants of Death”) who traded with belligerents between 1914 and 1917.
US would not make the same mistake twice…
