Characteristics of the Big Stick
President wilson thought that the big stick policy and dollar diplomacy should be substituted by the need to prevent future wars through new international organization, or a league of nations,open to all democratic members.
The theory is that leaders strive for peace while also keeping other nations aware of its military power. Teddy Roosevelt said to 'walk softly but carry a big stick". It is something that the US still does today.
Theodore Roosevelt's aggressive diplomacy was referred to as "The Big Stick".
Roosevelt's Corollary was an addition to the Monroe Doctrine that declared the United States could intervene, or use military force to keep peace, in Latin American countries when necessary. Dollar Diplomacy focused on business. Taft believed the United States should invest in other countries to maintain and increase its power. Wall street bankers backed loans made by US business to foreign countries. Basically, Roosevelt's "big stick" was military and Taft's "big stick" was business.
