Overseas Investments, 1919–1933

Robert W. Oliver

Chapter III in International Economic Co-Operation and the World Bank, 1996, pp 59-78 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The international political isolation of the United States in the twenties was a reaction to a war many Americans felt should never have been fought and a reaffirmation of the traditional American fear of entangling foreign alliances. The laissez-faire attitude of the government toward the domestic and the international economy was no more than policy based upon the established neo-classical economic doctrine of the day — or the day before.
