MAJOR THEMES IN OUR FOREIGN POLICY

Abstract

American aims can be grouped under three headings. The first is security-the preservation of our own safety. The second is the creation and the maintenance of a tolerable world order. The third is the pursuit of a better life for all men. The three objectives are interdependent, and it is quite clear that we shall never get very far in one of these areas unless at the same time we are making progress in the other two.
