	Wilsonian - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Wilsonianism or Wilsonian are words used to describe a certain type of ideological perspectives on foreign policy.
		Today other critics of Wilsonianism, such as paleoconservatives argue the principles are overly idealistic, and can lead to unnecessary military interventions, putting lives at risk for abstract concepts rather than direct threats.
		In the UK, the term "Wilsonian" (although rarely if ever "Wilsonism") is sometimes used to refer to the ideas associated with former Labour Prime Minister Harold Wilson, usually relating to his time in office from 1964-70 rather than his troubled return from 1974-76.

	WILSONIAN CONCEPTION OF DEMOCRACY AND HUMAN RIGHTS
		This essay examines the salience of Wilsonian precepts in United States foreign policy towards Africa in the past and in the current era of Clinton's visit to Africa.
		Wilsonian precepts resonated clearly in the messsage of the Atlantic Charter which, although promulgated by Franklin D. Roosevelt, Wilson's intellectual heir, manifestly indicated US dissatisfaction with the lack of sovereignty for colonised peoples.
		This is evidenced by the steady decline in military procurement to the continent, particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa.

		Wilsonianism thus failed to resonate, and the president's inept political behavior ensured the defeat of the Treaty of Versailles.
		Ninkovich demonstrates that Wilsonianism was central to the intensely ideological and global Cold War confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union.
		Wilsonianism was too deeply institutionalized in the national security state for any leader to change course until the collapse of the Soviet Union made it obsolete.

	Wilsonian
		Wilsonian is an adjective used to describe a certain type of idological perspectives on foreign policy.
		The term comes from the ideology of American President Woodrow Wilson, and his famous Fourteen Points that he believed would help create world peace if implemented.
		Overall, Wilsonian principles are often characterized as being motivated by benevolence and ideology, rather than strict self-interest and fear.

		The Wilsonian act of a punishment raid transforming into an intervention operation manifested itself several decades later under the auspices of President Bush.
		Another key Wilsonian trait exhibited by the current cadre of western leaders is their adherence to and reliance on multi-national governing bodies.
		Unilateral action was subsumed by the NATO coalition and later the influence of the U.N. This smacks of Wilson’s desires for the League of Nations to oversee world affairs.

		The Wilsonian is a seven-story landmark building serving discerning residents and guests of Seattle's University District since its opening on November 26th, 1923.
		Originally, The Wilsonian, built at a cost of $850,000, was the culmination of a twelve year dream of Corrine Simpson Wilson (1864-1929) to build the finest Apartment Hotel west of the Mississippi and north of San Francisco.
		Today The Wilsonian, with its original mahogany woodwork, inlaid with ebony, and intricate architectural detail, offers ninety-four view apartments ranging from 400 square feet to 880 square feet, along with eleven large office suites and ten street side retail businesses which range from 850 to 4,000 square feet.

		Properly understood, it is not the Wilsonians who are outside the mainstream of American foreign policy.

		To examine the Bosnian crisis squarely and honestly is to understand that the entire Wilsonian enterprise, the cornerstone of American diplomacy since the United States entered upon the world stage, faces collapse today.
		For Wilsonians, that war provided a much anticipated "second chance." Once again, Americans were called upon to resist monstrous evil.
		But only by stripping American policy of its Wilsonian fig leaf can the United States take a first step toward seeing the true dimensions of the challenge it faces in a turbulent post-Cold War world: that of a democracy and a superpower whose behavior must somehow reconcile both moral and pragmatic imperatives.

		This attempt to mask the world as it is prompted Maynard Keynes' scathing attack on Wilsonianism, "that web of sophistry and Jesuitical exegesis that was finally to clothe with insincerity the language and substance of the whole Treaty".
		There is no danger greater to the principles Wilson sought to advance than the doctrine of necessity, yet when the two collide, Nicolson opted to endorse necessity over principle.
		By this example, the contradiction between realpolitik and Wilsonianism is brought into sharp focus: the prisoner in question cannot be both imprisoned and set free.

		What can fairly be called the Wilsonian impulse dominates our State Department and such influential post-World War I organizations as the Council on Foreign Relations.
		There are not many of them and their memberships may not be large, but they do attract former foreign-affairs officers, often high and distinguished officials, who are presumed to speak with some authority and who get a disproportionate amount of respectful media coverage.
		Unlike Wilsonianism, this point of view is nationalist and unilateralist, looking back to Theodore Roosevelt rather than to Woodrow Wilson.

		The Wilsonian "family" as it were spans an entire range from what Ikenberry calls "liberal internationalists" (and I refer to as "Globalists") to the neocons.
		When the support of "idealist hawk" Wilsonians for the war in Iraq is equated assupport for Jacksonian campaign of Cheney-Rumsfeld, it is simply unfair.

		The problem with Wilsonianism is the sappiness and utopianism that attends it -- as it has with Iraq.
		By all means, talk about larger principles as part of fighting for national interest, but do not let high-flying rhetoric obscure the enduring grounds of national interest.
		Since the current principal sources of terrorists in Iraq is Iran and Syria, that argues that our next moves should be against them -- and that we should prepare to settle accounts with the Saudi and UAE funders of terrorists.

	Swans Commentary: Wilsonian Or Straussian: Post-Cold War Idealism?, by Mohammed Ben Jelloun - jelloun1
		The last Kissingerian-realist success was no fresh start for Wilsonian collective security as one could expect; it was instead a launching signal for the current Bushian doctrine of pre-emptive strike.
		It would make sense also of the neocons or would-be "hard Wilsonians" and the business about weapons of mass destruction, al Qaeda's fictitious connections with the Iraqi regime, and the crocodile tears shed over the fate of democracy in the Middle East, when not over humanity in Abu Ghraib.
		That is what happened probably in the case of Kosovo: Clinton's "air-strikes-only" doctrine was neither particularly in line with neo-conservative strategic style nor with Bush Junior's urge for ground engagement in Serbia, it proved nevertheless both "mobilizing" for the American public and tactically rewarding.

		But this concession points to an intellectual mistake made prior to the occupation: an underestimation in general of the difficulty of implanting democracy in alien soil, and an overestimation in particular of the sophistication of what is fundamentally still a tribal society and one devastated by decades of tyranny.
		The Wilsonian tendency has grown stronger in conservative foreign-policy thought in recent years, with both benefits (idealism should occupy an important place in American foreign policy, and almost always has) and drawbacks (as we have seen in Iraq, the world isn't as malleable as some Wilsonians would have it).
		But Iraq was not a Wilsonian — or a "neoconservative" — war.

		Wilson: "No one can worship God or love his neighbor on an empty stomach." Yet, in facing an economic crisis, Bush is not sending states the extra they want, some of which would pay for needed food stamps to help help feed hungry kids.
