Kennedy's foreign policy, known as the Flexible Response doctrine, involved using all means necessary - including military, economic, covert and diplomatic actions - to oppose the spread of communism and assure liberty's survival globally. The six stages of Flexible Response were: 1) maintaining nuclear weapons while pursuing alternatives to deterrence, 2) increasing conventional weapons and special forces like the Green Berets, 3) economic aid programs like the Alliance for Progress, 4) the Peace Corps to promote democracy, and 5) diplomacy to solve problems through communication.

Isolationists
The document discusses America's foreign policy in the early 20th century as it moved between isolationism and internationalism. While often characterized as isolationist in the 1920s, the US was actively involved through conferences, agreements, and loans abroad. FDR believed the US could not remain isolated as Germany and fascism rose. Though neutral at first, FDR took steps like Lend-Lease to aid Britain and passed embargoes against Japan. Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor led the US to enter World War II.
Foreign Policy in the 1960s
The document summarizes key events in US foreign policy during the early 1960s under Presidents Kennedy and Johnson. It describes the failed Bay of Pigs invasion, the Berlin Crisis involving the construction of the Berlin Wall, and the Cuban Missile Crisis that brought the US and Soviet Union to the brink of nuclear war. It also discusses the Alliance for Progress that aimed to promote economic development in Latin America and the establishment of the Peace Corps to support developing nations. Overall, the document analyzes Cold War crises and US initiatives during this period of escalating tensions with the Soviet Union.
A Necessary War
The document discusses the events leading up to the US entry into World War 2. It describes how Roosevelt revised neutrality laws to allow "cash and carry" arms sales and increased military spending in response to Nazi victories. Congress also passed the first peacetime draft. Britain was struggling and broke, so Roosevelt proposed lend-lease to supply any country vital to the US defense. On December 7th, 1941, Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, killing over 2,400 Americans and destroying numerous ships and aircraft, which led Congress to declare war on Japan and ally with Britain against the Axis powers.

World War 2 had a large impact on Georgia's development. The state's economy grew as it became the site of many new military bases and industries like the Bell Aircraft plant and Brunswick and Savannah shipyards. These facilities brought jobs and money into Georgia. Politicians like Richard Russell and Carl Vinson promoted the military and helped the state benefit from the war. The war also led to social changes as women entered the workforce while rationing and victory gardens supported the war effort at home.
World War I Notes
The long document discusses the causes, key events, and conclusion of World War 1. It examines the long term causes like militarism, nationalism, and imperialism, as well as the short term cause of the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand which led countries to take sides through their alliances and declare war. The US initially remained neutral but increasing attacks on shipping and the Zimmerman Telegram turned public opinion against Germany and led the US to enter the war in 1917. After years of trench warfare and new weapons, Germany surrendered in 1918 and the Treaty of Versailles formally ended the war.
The cold war 1945 1990
The Cold War was a decades-long ideological and geopolitical struggle between the United States and the Soviet Union that began following World War II. Key events that deepened tensions included Stalin reneging on allowing free elections in Eastern Europe, the Berlin Blockade, McCarthyism in the US, and the space race highlighted by the launch of Sputnik. Major crises like the Cuban Missile Crisis brought the two superpowers to the brink of nuclear war. Throughout the Cold War both sides sought to spread their influence and contain the other through military alliances like NATO and the Warsaw Pact as well as policies like containment and détente.
JFK Foreign Policy
The document summarizes key events in US foreign policy during the early 1960s under presidents Kennedy and Johnson. It describes the failed Bay of Pigs invasion, the Berlin Crisis and Kennedy's confrontation with Khrushchev over Soviet missiles in Cuba, known as the Cuban Missile Crisis. It also discusses Kennedy's Alliance for Progress initiative to promote economic development in Latin America and the establishment of the Peace Corps. The summary concludes by noting Johnson's continuation of containment policies against communism, including sending troops to the Dominican Republic and military advisors to South Vietnam.
Canada and the cold war 2015
The Cold War began in 1945 after WWII and lasted until 1991. It was a period of geopolitical tension and military buildup between the United States and its capitalist allies and the Soviet Union and its communist allies. Though direct military conflict was avoided, the two superpowers engaged in espionage, propaganda, arms races, and proxy wars. Canada was pulled closer to the U.S. through alliances like NORAD but maintained some independence in foreign policy decisions. The threat of nuclear war loomed large throughout the Cold War as both sides stockpiled weapons.

Vietnam & iraq
The document compares the Vietnam and Iraq wars in several areas:
1) Causes, troop levels/casualties, public opinion over time, protest movements, financial costs, and outcomes. While both faced declining public support, protests against Vietnam were more widespread. Troop levels peaked at over 500,000 in Vietnam compared to 162,000 in Iraq. Costs and mental health impacts were also higher in Vietnam where the outcome led to South Vietnam falling after U.S. withdrawal.
Jfk presentation
The document provides background context on John F. Kennedy's 1961 inaugural speech, including the historical events and figures that influenced it. Kennedy drew upon speeches from Winston Churchill, FDR, and Abraham Lincoln in crafting his address. He aimed to unite and inspire Americans to meet the challenges of the Cold War, civil rights movement, and Vietnam War. The speech utilized rhetorical devices like alliteration, repetition, personification, and antithesis to simplify complex issues and frame them as clear choices.
Ike Day 2
The "New Look" foreign policy of the Eisenhower administration focused on brinkmanship and massive retaliation using nuclear weapons as a deterrent against communist expansion. It advocated threatening nuclear attacks to push communist countries back behind their pre-1945 borders and interfering in communist governments through covert CIA operations. The policy was based on the domino theory that if one country fell to communism it could trigger surrounding countries to also fall like a line of falling dominoes.
D day prayer
Franklin Delano Roosevelt delivered a prayer on June 6, 1944, the day of the D-Day invasion in Normandy during World War II. Over 155,000 American, British, and Canadian soldiers participated in D-Day, with nearly 10,000 casualties and over 4,000 deaths. In his prayer, Roosevelt asked God to watch over the troops, give them strength and courage, and allow them to fight for justice, tolerance, and goodwill for all people. He hoped the soldiers would return home safely from the massive military operation on the beaches of Normandy.

This document summarizes Nixon's approach to ending US involvement in the Vietnam War, known as Vietnamization, the 1973 Paris Peace Accords, and the war's lasting impacts. It discusses Nixon's plan to withdraw US troops while strengthening South Vietnam's forces, the ceasefire agreement, and South Vietnam's eventual fall to communism in 1975. The document also evaluates the war's effects on trust in US leadership and willingness to intervene abroad, as well as congressional limits imposed by the War Powers Act.
Technology and changing nature of warfare
This document discusses the changing nature of warfare throughout history, focusing on the increasing role of technology:
- It begins in 1915 with the first use of poison gas and continues through major events like the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
- The Cold War saw a focus on improving aircraft and missiles, as well as chemical weapons. The policy of deterrence developed, relying on threats of retaliation.
- More recently, precision guided weapons have allowed reduced casualties while still achieving military objectives, as seen in conflicts like the Gulf War.
- However, technology has also enabled new threats like cyberattacks, raising questions about the ongoing relevance of deterrence in contemporary times.
Homefront wwii pt 1
This document provides an overview of how the US home front was transformed during World War 2. It discusses how FDR took steps to increase military production and support allies before the US entered the war. After the attack on Pearl Harbor, the US mobilized for total war - the government took on expanded powers, industry was converted to war production, and millions of men and women entered the military or worked in factories. Women, in particular, took on new roles in the workforce and military. The government established agencies to coordinate the war effort and propaganda at home and abroad and encourage activities like scrap drives to support the war production.
Homefront wwii pt 2
The document discusses how the US financed WWII, including raising over $321 billion through increased taxes, war bond sales, and growing the national debt.

It also discusses the internment of Japanese Americans, discrimination faced by minorities, key minority contributions like the Tuskegee Airmen and Navajo Code Talkers, and the election of FDR to a fourth term and his death in 1945.
The cold war full story s. white
The Cold War began in 1945 after World War II and lasted until 1991. It was a period of intense rivalry and hostility between the United States and the Soviet Union, who emerged as the two dominant superpowers after WWII. Both nations increased military spending and built up nuclear arsenals, risking global destruction through nuclear war. The conflict included numerous proxy wars around the world and heightened tensions, such as the Cuban Missile Crisis that brought the world close to nuclear war. In the late 1980s, reforms in the Soviet Union under Gorbachev led to the fall of the Berlin Wall and the eventual dissolution of the Soviet Union, bringing an end to the over 40-year long Cold War.

Jfk day 2
JFK pursued a foreign policy of flexible response that involved 6 stages: 1) maintaining nuclear weapons but seeking options beyond deterrence, 2) increasing conventional weapons and defense spending, 3) creating covert special forces units like the Green Berets, 4) providing $20 billion in economic aid through programs like the Alliance for Progress, 5) establishing the Peace Corps to promote democracy abroad, and 6) pursuing diplomacy to solve international problems through communication.
Kennedy and Vietnam
Kennedy initially opposed French colonialism in Vietnam and the policies of containment and McCarthyism. As president, he increased U.S. military advisers in Vietnam due to fears that failure in Vietnam would undermine U.S. credibility globally. However, the ARVN performed poorly and the strategic hamlet program failed to win over the population, leading to growing doubts within the administration over escalation in Vietnam. Kennedy was assassinated before implementing a withdrawal strategy.

The Japanese attacked the Philippines hours after bombing Pearl Harbor. US forces under Douglas MacArthur retreated to Bataan Peninsula but later surrendered, leading to the brutal Bataan Death March. In response to these defeats, the US launched Doolittle's Raid on Tokyo and won a major victory at the Battle of Midway in 1942, marking a turning point in the war against Japan in the Pacific. Meanwhile, the Soviets defeated the Germans at Stalingrad, another major turning point. The Allies also had success in North Africa. These victories put Germany and Japan on the defensive for the remainder of the war.
The cold war global
The document discusses key events and concepts related to the Cold War, including:
1) The emergence of the US and USSR as rival superpowers following World War 2 led to ideological and geopolitical tensions between capitalism and communism.
2) This resulted in an arms race, proxy wars, and the formation of opposing military alliances like NATO and the Warsaw Pact.
3) Major flashpoints and events that heightened Cold War tensions included the Berlin Blockade, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and the Vietnam War.

Americans changed their lives in many ways to support the war effort during World War 2. The government implemented policies like the Selective Service Act to draft men into military service. Citizens were encouraged to buy war bonds to help finance the war and conserve resources through rationing of goods. People grew victory gardens to address food shortages and the Office of War Information coordinated the dissemination of war information. Industry shifted from making consumer goods to weapons and equipment. Women entered the workforce in large numbers to replace men. Minority groups also contributed significantly despite facing discrimination, with African Americans and Japanese Americans experiencing internment.
Chapter 19 sec 4
The document summarizes America's entry into World War II. Although the U.S. remained neutral at first, President Roosevelt helped Britain and France through measures like revising neutrality laws and passing the Lend-Lease Act. Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 killed over 2,400 Americans and drew the U.S. fully into the war against Germany and Japan.
Vietnam Day 5
The North won the Vietnam War for several reasons: they fought harder than the South Vietnamese, the South Vietnamese leadership was poor, and American tactics were inappropriate for the war and draining on US resources. The human and financial costs of the war were immense for both Vietnam and the US. The Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington DC, designed by Maya Lin, helped Americans accept and process the grief and losses from the war. Many US military officers who served in Vietnam vowed to avoid ambiguous or unpopular wars in the future.
