The Big Stick Policy
Published 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Description
At the dawn of the 20th century, the United States began stepping onto the world stage with a new kind of confidence—one shaped by power, diplomacy, and a carefully calculated threat of force. At the center of this transformation stood Theodore Roosevelt, a president who believed America should "speak softly and carry a big stick."
Known as the Big Stick Policy, Roosevelt's approach to foreign affairs blended negotiation with naval strength, reshaping U.S. influence across Latin America and beyond.
