This work examines the intellectual and political universe that made Theodore Roosevelt one of the most reform-minded American statesmen of the early twentieth century. Roosevelt's worldview-and Roosevelt's stewardship of American diplomacy-drew upon both the empirical appreciation of power politics as well as a normative sensibility about the requirements of justice and righteousness in the conduct of individuals and nations. Roosevelt's reputation as an internationalist, both as thinker and diplomatic practitioner, has received far too little attention in the literature of international relations. This study aims to remedy part of that deficit by viewing his internationalism through his defence of both American national ideals and cosmopolitan goals, his mediation ending the Russo-Japanese War, and his defence of international law and a league of righteousness after 1914. Readership All those interested in American intellectual and diplomatic history, theoretical traditions in international relations, as well as those interested in U. S. presidential foreign policy leadership. About the author Greg Russell, Ph.D. (1987) in Political Science, Louisiana State University, is Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of Oklahoma. He has published numerous articles on the American diplomatic tradition, including John Quincy Adams and the Public Virtues of Diplomacy (University of Missouri Press, 1995).
