Internationalism Under Relentless Attacks: Anti-United Nations Sentiment in the United States During the Truman Era
A Fiery and Unabated Supporter of Post-War Isolationism: Journalist John T. Flynn and American Foreign Policy, 1945–60
Although primarily interested in domestic issues throughout his life, New York journalist and radio commentator John T. Flynn (1882–1964), author of more than fifteen books on current affairs, appeared as a fiery disparager of the internationalist and interventionist foreign policy of the Truman and Eisenhower administrations. For instance, in his vitriolic writings and radio broadcasts, he frequently criticized containment measures such as the M…
Truman, Franco's Spain, and the Cold War
In this interesting study, Wayne H. Bowen, a professor of history at Southeast Missouri State University, examines the evolution of the policies of President Harry S. Truman regarding Francisco Franco's Spain. Among other things, he demonstrates that the Cold War acted as the catalyst that prompted this “anti-Spanish president” to grudgingly forge an alliance in 1951–1952 with the authoritarian regime of the caudillo, which officially materialize…

An Isolationist Politician in an Internationalist Era: Senator Henrik Shipstead of Minnesota and the United Nations, 1945–1946
On 28 July 1945, Republican Henrik Shipstead of Minnesota was one of only two members of the US Senate to vote against the United Nations Charter. The politician objected to the famous document that had emerged from the San Francisco conference on several grounds. It must be noted, in addition, that he was spokesman for a state that still counted, during the Truman era, its contingent of individuals and organizations receptive to the isolationist…

The Isolationist Sentiment in North Dakota during the Truman-Eisenhower Years
In the rare studies dealing with American post–World War II isolationism, the state of North Dakota, bordering on the Canadian provinces of Manitoba and Saskatchewan, always holds a special place, as it has acquired the reputation of having been ”the nation’s most isolationist state during the postwar decade” (Carpenter 22; see also Lubell 146). To a large extent, this reputation can be ascribed to the attitude of some of its prominent Republic…
The U.S. Presidential Election of 1948: The Causes of Truman’s “Astonishing” Victory
Novembre 1998 a marqué aux États-Unis le 50e anniversaire de la fameuse élection présidentielle de 1948 par laquelle le démocrate Harry S. Truman, à la grande surprise des instituts de sondage et d’une myriade d’analystes politiques, l’emportait sur le candidat républicain Thomas E. Dewey. Plusieurs interprétations ont été avancées par les historiens pour expliquer ce résultat « inattendu » qui, au dire de certains, devait s’avérer lourd de consé…

Opposition to the 22nd Amendment: The National Committee Against Limiting the Presidency and its Activities, 1949-1951
On March 24, 1947, as a posthumous slap at Franklin Delano Roosevelt and his unprecedented four terms in the White House, the Republicans of the 80th Congress passed the Twenty-second Amendment to the Constitution limiting presidents to two terms. With the ratification by a 36th state (Ne- vada), it finally became law on February 26, 1951. According to Massachu- setts Congressman Joseph Martin of the Grand Old Party, this landmark event represent…

Emanuel Celler of Brooklyn: Leading Advocate of Liberal Immigration Policy, 1945-52
Immigration was a prominent issue during the Truman era. Indeed, several significant laws were enacted at this time. These included the War Brides Act of 1945, the Displaced Persons Acts of 1948 and 1950, the Internal Security Act of 1950, the Immigration and Nationality (McCarran-Walter) Act of 1952, and some momentous measures relating to Mexican agricul- tural labour and the so-called wetback problem. Particularly noteworthy were the Displaced…
