The Carnegie Corporation and the Mobilisation of Opinion in the United States' Rise to Globalism, 1939--1945

摘要

THE CARNEGIE CORPORATION played a vital role in the United States' rise to globalism between 1939 and 1945. By financing a variety of organisations and projects, the Corporation-a non-profit philanthropic foundation-assisted the development and promotion of internationalism in the universities and among broad sections of elite and mass opinion. Consequently, the Corpora- tion helped challenge, undermine and politically marginalise isolationist thought and opinion, thereby strengthening the hand of the internationalist Roosevelt administration.
