The election of Warren G. Harding in 1920 signaled a shift towards isolationism in American foreign policy, reflecting a desire among many Americans to prioritize domestic issues over international engagement. Harding's administration emphasized a return to "normalcy," which involved reducing involvement in international conflicts and treaties following World War I. This approach implied a retreat from the League of Nations and a focus on economic prosperity at home, suggesting that the U.S. would take a more passive role in global affairs during the 1920s.
