In recent years, and in light of U.S. attempts
to project power in the world, the presidency
of Woodrow Wilson has been more commonly
invoked than ever before. Yet Wilsonianism
has often been distorted by a concentration
on American involvement in the First World
War. In Woodrow Wihon and the Great War:
Reconsidering America s Neutrality,
igia—ígľj,
prominent scholar Robert Tucker turns the
focus to the years of neutrality. Arguing that
our neglect of this prewar period has reduced
the complexity of the historical Wilson to a
caricature or stereotype, Tucker reveals the
importance that the law of neutrality played
in Wilson s foreign policy during the fateful
years from
1914
to
1917,
and in doing so
he provides a more complete portrait of our
nation s twenty-eighth president.
By focusing on the years leading up to
America s involvement in the Great War,
Tucker reveals that Wilson s internationalism
was always highly qualified, dependent from
the start upon the advent of an international
order that would forever remove the specter
of another major war. World War I was the
last conflict in which the law of neutrality
played an important role in the calculations
of belligerents and neutrals, and it is scarcely
an exaggeration to say that this law
—
or rather
Woodrow Wilson s version of it
—
constituted
almost the whole of his foreign policy with
regard to the war. Wilson s refusal to find any
significance, moral or otherwise, in the conflict
beyond the law and its violation led him to see
die war as meaningless, save for the immense
suffering and sense of utter futility it fostered.
Treating issues of enduring interest, such
as the advisability and effectiveness of U.S.
interventions
in, or initiation of, conflicts
beyond its borders, Woodrow Wihon and the
Great WarvAW appeal to anyone interested in
the president s power to determine foreign
policy, and in constitutional history in general.
Robert W. Tucker is Professor Emeritus
of American Diplomacy at the Paul H. Nitze
School of Advanced International Studies,
Johns Hopkins University.
