The material traces historical precedents from Washington’s Proclamation of Neutrality (1793) and Farewell Address (1796) to Monroe’s Doctrine (1823), then summarizes U.S. stance in World War I, including reluctance to enter the conflict and opposition reflected in anti-war literature. The handout concludes with Great Depression-era policy actions like the Nye investigation, neutrality legislation, and the 1937
