		"Isolationist" is a smear term, used against countries who don't wish to interfere in other countries.
		I am asking because in the past many people with similar pro-business views were isolationists, and isolationism has proven to be impractical as well as dangerous (imagine the US deciding not to get involved against Hitler.
		Sadly, on this issue, America is intellectually bankrupt, as the ideas it exports to other countries tend to be anti-American, Leftist ones, i.e., racist ideas that lead to global balkanization, such as mutliculturalism.

		The trouble for isolationists was that their argument applied equally to the United States of 1914-17, which had entered World War I on a wave of public support.
		The isolationists finally gained traction with what the historian Charles Beard called "the devil theory of war," namely the notion that political phenomena, including war, were ultimately traceable to economic causes.
		A mainstay of isolationist thought, the devil theory found receptive audiences both among liberal and radical isolationists resentful of Eastern economic elites and among a populace hit hard by the Great Depression.

	WorldNetDaily: Buchanan `isolationism` is a myth (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		Taken at face value, an "isolationist" politician is one who prefers to concentrate more on domestic issues rather than emphasize and allocate resources to foreign policy.
		By that definition, President Bill Clinton campaigned as an isolationist when he proclaimed, in 1991, that his candidacy was all about domestic issues, especially "the economy, stupid." Clinton rode into the White House -- twice -- largely because he pledged to concentrate more on the ills of this country instead of problems overseas.
		Buchanan's so-called "isolationist" missive is nothing more than an admonishment to the powers that be to disengage the foreign policy autopilot, think about the ramifications of every decision, weigh them against the needs or benefits to the United States, and examine whether or not our constitutional form of government gives us the authority to intervene.

		Fromkin calculates that the true isolationists among the Republicans were not more than a dozen, to which I would add that even some of those might have been won over by well?drafted concessions.
		Nye was undoubtedly an isolationist of sorts, but Vandenberg was an internationalist by instinct who played a notable role during and after the Second World War in creating the United Nations and securing passage of the Marshall Plan.

		If a group favors invading a nation which poses no direct threat and killing thousands of their people based on only the thinnest pretext of national interest, that group is not isolationist.
		By definition, all discussed here are isolationist; however, when it comes down to humanity’s best interests, I think libertarian private cooperation isolation is the best.

	Embodied Cognition [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
		Embodied cognition theorists view cognitivist/classicist accounts as problematic for many reasons, but they are especially concerned that these accounts result in an isolationist assumption that attempts to understand cognition by focusing almost exclusively on an organism's internal cognitive processes.
		Specifically, the concern is that if an isolationist assumption rests at the heart of the cognitivist/classicist research program, then the resulting explanations are inaccurate because they either underplay or completely overlook environmental factors that are essential to the formation of an accurate explanation of cognitive development.
		Consequently, this isolationist assumption is perceived to result in decreased explanatory power since it de-emphasizes two crucial factors that are needed to understand cognitive development: 1) the exact way organisms are embodied, and 2) the manner in which this embodied form simultaneously constrains and prescribes certain interactions within the environment.

		All in all, the isolationist sentiment of the North Dakotan congressional delegation received considerable impetus during the postwar period.
		Second, isolationist constituents with German names did not seem to abound in the correspondence of North Dakota members of Congress, an observation which suggests, as scholar Robert Wilkins has affirmed (Wilkins 205), the inadequacy of the ethnic interpretation of North Dakotan isolationism.

		The cost benefit analysis of these cases is that the cost to the country of their hiring of illegal aliens was greater than any benefit they could have provided the last two administrations.
		This twisted set of values comes to us from the unions and the isolationists (who are sometimes the same), and is abetted by eagle scout naivete.
		And the isolationists have all sorts of trouble with foreigners (and George Carlin has probably hit this on the head when he says it is really because they're brown).

		During this time, U.S. policymakers refrained from actively engaging in the affairs of other major powers, particularly those in Europe, to the point that U.S. entry into both World Wars occurred long after each war began.
		However, because the United States had been actively interventionist in the affairs of its Latin American neighbors during this period, the term "isolationist" is somewhat misleading.
		Following World War II, American policymakers took an active interest in global foreign affairs, becoming heavily interventionist[?] in parts of the world outside of its traditional involvement in the Western Hemisphere.

		In remarks that are likely to spark a new row over immigration, Hain criticised sections of the Muslim community for being "very isolationist" and warned that their behaviour allowed extremists to exploit cultural divisions.
		In an interview with The Sunday Times he said he was concerned by the rapid growth in asylum seekers arriving in Britain, many from Islamic countries, and the refusal of some to adopt British culture.
		That in the end is going to create real difficulties and is likely to be ripe for exploitation by extremists, whether it is followers of Bin Laden on one hand or racists on the other.

		This is a key card to the deck, and you want to be able to protect it if it is out (this is also why the Red Cross is in the deck, and two Early Warnings), or have a good chance of stealing it off other people if they have it.
		The first is that even pretending to be isolationist is good defensively, and therefore you can often find yourself having to worry only about other people getting to the goal before you.
		The second is that the element of suprise is always an advantage, and the more you make yourself seem like something you are not, the more likely you are to slip in under their radar.
