Description:

This paper discusses Osgood's book which covers the period of United States history from 1895 to the end of the undeclared war in Korea. It points out that the historical period covered in this work of Osgood in reality dates even further back in history to about 1822. It deals with alliances and their ideals in both times of war and peace explaining the subtle differences in context each state presents in foreign relations.

From the Paper:

"Although Osgood holds Degrees from several highly regarded universities and colleges his primary educational background is from The Johns Hopkins University. A prolific writer on the subject of the United States' involvement in foreign relations his strongest area of study in the early years when this work was produced is in Wilsonian Theories of Foreign Alliances. To this end "Ideals and Self Interest in American Foreign Relations," one of his first book length publications covers the period of United States history from 1895 to the end of the undeclared war in Korea. Technically, the United States and the United Nations Alliance are still at war with the People's Democratic Republic of North Korea as hostilities ended in 1953 with the signing of a "Cease Fire," arrangement rather than any sort of "Peace Treaty," or agreement."
