The philosophical justifications for the war with Spain in 1898 largely revolved around notions of American exceptionalism, Imperialism, and humanitarianism. Proponents argued that the U.S. had a moral obligation to intervene in Cuba to liberate its people from Spanish oppression, framing the conflict as a fight for democracy and human rights. Additionally, the war was seen as a means to expand American influence and territory, aligning with the belief that the U.S. had a destiny to spread its values and civilization. This blend of altruistic motives and imperial ambitions underscored the philosophical rationale for the conflict.
The practical justification was purely that they thought they could go it alone on the strength of their cotton exports, and that they could defeat any military intervention. The philosophical justification was that they were a noble and heroic society, with blood-links to the Cavaliers of the English Civil War, different and superior to the industrial North. If their cotton trade depended on slavery, then slavery could be seen as a God-given arrangement of man and master.
