The Impact of the First World War on U.S. Policymakers: American
Strategic and Foreign Policy Formulation, 1938-1942 is designed to
recount the formulation of foreign and defense policies through an
examination of the background of the policymakers, with specific
emphasis on the World War I experience. The introduction provides
an analysis of the literature of the history of this American World
War II policy formulation. The events and factors that led to the
reorientation of priorities in 1938-1939 are examined. From that
base, Michael Carew reviews the unfolding events of the European
and Japanese degeneration into war through the spring of 1940, and
their perception for the American policy-makers. He also recounts
the tectonic shifts of the subsequent eighteen months and the
scramble for an American response. The immediate consequences of
Pearl Harbor brought the policymaking to a crisis, and the
Casablanca conference of January 1943 signified the completion of
the formulation of American foreign policy and naval-military
strategy. Carew emphasizes the leadership of President Roosevelt
and his cadre of planners in the policy formulation realm, the
assertion of leadership of the alliance, and Roosevelt's specific
tasks in managing the American war effort. These presidential tasks
included the industrial mobilization of the American economy, the
domestic political leadership of the war, the persuasion of the
alliance to the propriety of American policy, and the defeat of the
Axis.
