Since its independence in  1776 to April 1917, the logic of  Isolationism was dominant upon the Foreign Policy of this country.

The second period in the US Foreign Policy inclined towards that has been continuing since 1917.  Our goal in this research is to historical and also identify  theoretical foundations of  this  tradition, that is, internationalism in the US Foreign Policy.
