PS1010 Columbia Southern United States Foreign Policy Final Discussion

As you have learned in this course, politics are an inherent part of government and every citizen’s life. In this unit, we discussed three types of American policy, domestic, economic, and foreign, and how these policies affect the United States domestically and abroad. The shared powers granted by our Constitution often lead to an overlap in responsibility during policymaking referred to as an invitation to struggle. Once established, American policy often affects other nations around the world. This is evidenced in part by the concepts of isolationism and internationalism.

For this assignment, you will select one type of policy, domestic, foreign, or economic, covered in the unit, describe its purpose and goals, and explain how it affects relationships between the United States and other nations.

In addition, you will discuss how the policy you chose affects U.S. strategy on isolationism or internationalism and how the media influences such decisions. You must use the databases of the CSU Online Library to locate at least three academic articles that support your position.

Finally, in your paper, you will discuss why the shared power of the three branches of government is sometimes referred to as an invitation to struggle about policymaking for foreign affairs.

Your paper should consist of at least three pages. Also, any sources used should be cited and referenced properly using APA formatting.
