""The Monroe Doctrine: An Obsolete Shibboleth"" is a book written by Hiram Bingham that explores the history and relevance of the Monroe Doctrine. The Monroe Doctrine is a foreign policy principle that was introduced by President James Monroe in 1823, which stated that any intervention by European powers in the affairs of the Americas would be considered a hostile act towards the United States. Bingham argues that the Monroe Doctrine is no longer relevant in modern times and has become an outdated principle that no longer serves the interests of the United States. He examines the historical context in which the doctrine was introduced and the ways in which it has been applied over the years. The book also explores the impact of the Monroe Doctrine on foreign policy and international relations in the Americas. Bingham discusses the challenges and limitations of the doctrine and proposes alternative approaches to foreign policy that would better serve the interests of the United States. Overall, ""The Monroe Doctrine: An Obsolete Shibboleth"" is a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of a key foreign policy principle in American history and its relevance in the modern world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
