Diplomacy and Displacement: The Monroe Doctrine and Indigenous Cultures

Advertisement

This historical program examines early 19th-century U.S. expansionist policy through the lens of the Monroe Doctrine’s lesser-known role in limiting Indigenous sovereignty and curbing European influence over tribal nations. It explores how Indigenous communities were viewed as both political obstacles and strategic concerns within the expanding American republic.
