Cordell Hull, a well known internationalist and observer of the turmoil he saw in the 1930's, blamed the US Great Depression, its affects on the world's economic instability, the rise of fascism in Germany as the collection of causes that brought on World War Two. Except for the US, the world's great powers came out of the war far worse then before it.Hull cited protective tariffs unfair economic competition, restricted access to raw materials and autarkic government policies as factors that led to the critical mass resulting in global war.

What was a reason behind the conservative internationalism foreign policy during the 1920's and 1930's?

I'm not sure I'd classify 1920s-1930s foreign policy as "conservative internationalist." Post-WW1 strategy was more in line with liberal internationalism, which called for greater emphasis on diplomacy and international institutions such as the failed League of Nations. Really, during most of the 20s and 30s the United States attempted to stay out of world affairs. It was only after WWII that the U.S. took a conservative internationalist approach, first under Truman, then later under Reagan, both of whom made great strides to eliminate the threat of Communism.


What was the three major set backs of the depression?

The Great Depression faced three major setbacks: widespread unemployment, which peaked at around 25%, leading to severe financial hardship for millions; a collapse in the banking system, resulting in the loss of savings and further contraction of credit; and a dramatic decline in global trade, exacerbated by protectionist policies like the Smoot-Hawley Tariff, which deepened economic stagnation worldwide. These factors combined to prolong the economic crisis and hinder recovery efforts throughout the 1930s.
