Elected an unprecedented four times to the presidency, Franklin D.
Roosevelt led the United States through some of the most dramatic
and trying foreign and domestic episodes in its history. Coming to
power in the throws of a crippling depression, Roosevelt quickly
found himself having to juggle the need for tremendous domestic
revitalization in a world menaced by burgeoning aggressor states.
In Debating Franklin D. Roosevelt's Foreign Policies, noted
historians Justus D. Doenecke and Mark A. Stoler offer differing
perspectives on the Roosevelt years, finding disparate meanings
from common data. Finding Roosevelt astute at choosing the most
effective option of those available, Stoler generally defends FDR's
policies against their traditional critics. Conversely, Doenecke
emphasizes a dangerous shallowness and superficiality in FDR's
approach to foreign affairs, particularly in his first two terms.
The contrary viewpoints of the authors, supplemented by carefully
chosen documents, provide an ideal introduction allowing readers to
examine the issues and draw their own conclusions about Franklin
Roosevelt's foreign policy.
