History Suggests America Can Never Be a Lone Wolf

This journal is modeled on Christianity & Crisis, which Reinhold Niebuhr founded in 1941 to urge American Protestants to aid the Allies against the Axis. Its theme was that neither morality nor national interest justified continued isolation. That self-imposed isolation was military and economic, including neutrality towards foreign conflicts and high tariffs against foreign products. Niebuhr believed America must both engage and lead.
