“天定命运论”与美国扩张主义外交

摘要

The origin of the "manifest destiny" and the expansionist foreign policy of the United States are introduced."Manifest destiny" has been profoundly affected the foreign policy of the United States.Today's "American exceptionalism" is exactly the same with the "manifest destiny" in nature,it "like a bond,the highest foreign policy makers,opinion leaders and the general public are linked with that",and it became the guise of U.S.hegemony and power politics.%介绍了美国＂天定命运论＂的产生及其扩张主义外交,认为＂天定命运论＂一直深深地影响着美国的外交政策。当今的＂美国例外论＂在性质上与＂天定命运论＂如出一辙,它＂像一根共同的纽带,将最高对外决策者、舆论引导者及广大民众联系起来＂,成为美国推行霸权主义和强权政治的幌子。
