Chapter 10 Discussion
As you learned in textbook chapter 10, the Monroe Doctrine outlined U.S. foreign policy during President Monroes tenure. In summary, the policy stated that America would only get involved in foreign affairs if its interests were directly threatened, that America was the dominant power in the Western Hemisphere, and that America would view any interference in the Western Hemisphere as an act of aggression.
Consider current U.S. involvement in foreign countries affairs. In your opinion, does the United States still adhere to some of the Monroe Doctrines tenets? Why or why not?
Post your response on the discussion board, supporting your opinion by citing information from scholarly, academic, or educational sources other than the course textbook. Then read and reply to at least two classmates posts that oppose your opinion. State the points with which you agree and those with which you disagree, as well as your reasons.
