Since Monroe, many presidents have introduced their own doctrines, though often less explicitly than Vance’s description of the Trump Doctrine. Observers have struggled to define President Joe Biden’s foreign policy doctrine. some suggest it involves renewed commitment to allies and demonstrating the capacity of democracies to meet challenges.
Jessica T. Matthews, former president of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, wrote in a Foreign Affairs article that it was too soon to define Biden’s doctrine, but that his approach seemed to eschew wars to remake othre countries and to restore diplomacy as the central tool of foreign policy.
Barack obama’s foreign policy was frequently enough summarized as “don’t do stupid sh-t,” a principle that drew both criticism for being simplistic and praise for being cautious.E.J. Dionne Jr., a Washington Post columnist, described the Obama Doctrine as a form of realism that recognized the limits of American power.
In 2007, TIME described George W.Bush’s doctrine as emphasizing the projection of American military power. Before 9/11, columnist Charles Krauthammer defined it as a “new unilateralism” aimed at enhancing American power. After the attacks, a 2002 National Security strategy document emphasized combating terrorism, stating that the U.S. would hold accountable nations that harbor terrorists.
Bill Clinton’s doctrine is often linked to a 1999 speech where he said the U.S. has a obligation to shape a more peaceful, prosperous, democratic world, acting where its values and interests are at stake.
Matthew Kroenig, a Foreign policy columnist, outlined three pillars of President Trump’s foreign policy: America First, preventing America from being exploited, and escalating to de-escalate. He noted Trump’s negotiating strategy involves making extreme demands to gain leverage.
The success of the Trump Doctrine in changing the U.S. and the world remains to be seen.
