Answer 7

Wilson's idea of 'moral diplomacy' differed from Teddy Roosevelt's "Speak Softly and Carry a Big Stick" in that it was ineffective. Wilson's '14 Points' and his"League of Nations" were ultimately rejected by the American Congress, while TR's "Big Stick" - coupled with his building and sending "The Great White Fleet" of battleships on a world tour proved most effective in quietly demonstrating that the United States was now a military force to be taken most seriously.

Answer 8

Woodrow Wilson's policy of moral diplomacy was based on the idea that creating an international consensus would result in morals being properly implemented through good will. His policy resulted in the creation of the League of Nations, the precursor to the United Nations, and the Kellogg-Briand Pact. While both the League of Nations and the Kellogg-Briand Pact were failures, they provided a blueprint to a less violent future.

Theodore Roosevelt's "Big Stick Policy" was based on using the US Military as a backdrop to achieving US political aims. When negotiations with Gran Colombia build the Panama Canal failed, Roosevelt gave support to Panamanian Rebels and interposed the US navy to prevent Colombia from attacking them without causing a war with the United States. With Panama now independent, the Panama Canal was authorized. However, it was simply an action of brute force and does not accommodate other perspectives and viewpoints.
