The “Old” and the “New” of the Monroe Doctrine
门罗主义的“旧”与“新”
Sitegeqi, a researcher at the Institute of International Strategic Studies in Beijing, compares the original Monroe Doctrine with the “New Monroe Doctrine” of President Trump, arguing the latter has a more isolationist character but a broader geographic scope. He contends that Trump sees Latin America as a source of U.S. domestic problems, which he seeks to address through foreign policy.
This is one of five pieces published by the Journal of Latin American Studies as part of a compendium titled “The ‘New Monroe Doctrine’ and China-U.S.-Latin America Relations.” The other four pieces are also available on the Interpret: China platform.
