You believe that by avoiding interference in other nations' affairs, a country can promote peace, stability, and prosperity for all.
Non-interventionism is a political ideology that advocates for a nation to refrain from interfering in the affairs of other nations, particularly in terms of military involvement. This ideology is rooted in the belief that such interference often leads to unnecessary conflict and can undermine the sovereignty of other nations. Non-interventionists argue that a country should focus on its own domestic issues and maintain peaceful relations with other nations through diplomacy and trade, rather than through military force or coercion.
The history of non-interventionism dates back to the…

How do you negotiate the thin line between respecting someone's independence and providing them needed aid?
@9KTY2HN1yr1Y
I believe that we should respect their independence if it does not and cannot lead to the endagerment of our people
If someone is in the need of aid then they should be provided with it but if not, and they're doing fine independent and not putting anyone in harms way then that should be respected.
@9KWTV7X1yr1Y
We should respect people's independence and freedom at all times, as it is a free country. If something will not lead to any danger at all, then why not do it?
@9KWS34B1yr1Y
Individuals have there on rights and own beliefs. So its most respectful to let them do what they need to do.
@9KTY7NBRepublican1yr1Y
If they are not harming anything than we should respect their independence.
@9KTXWL6Republican1yr1Y
You do your thing and I'll do mine. Don't tread on my rights and I wont tread on yours.
@9KTXZN51yr1Y
People's independence matters but if they need aid, it should be given to them.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How would you handle a situation where you’re unsure if stepping in would help or make things worse?
@9L734GT1yr1Y
I would just not step in unitl i knew the situation was calmer.
Get the opinion of the international community. Maybe they understand something I don't see.
@9LBZ4GV1yr1Y
In the context of non-interventionism, where a policy of non-interference in the affairs of other nations is favored, the decision-making process in a situation where intervention is uncertain can be complex. Here are some considerations to help navigate such a scenario:
Evaluate the Situation: Begin by analyzing the situation to understand the nature of the issue, the potential implications of intervention, and the possible consequences of non-intervention. Consider the values and principles that guide your approach to non-interventionism.
Gather Information: Collect as much relevant information as possible about the situation, including the root causes, the parties involved, and the potential outcomes of intervention. Make an effort to understand the context and complexities of the situation before making a decision.
@9LBYYDF1yr1Y
Ask others if they need me to step in to ensure if it's right to help.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How might a high school's policy of non-intervention in student disputes affect the student body?
@9LBNVL51yr1Y
High school should wear a little bit of clothes during the summer time but when it is winter time they need to cover their body up. And if something happens they need to tell someone what's going on to change the rules and how it should be. But everyone should wear whatever they want to wear but be respectful.
If they do not interfere, students may hurt themselves or each other.
@9LBNMNCRepublican1yr1Y
It might lead to students feeling neglected or cause increased tensions between students idk

@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Should countries with more power and resources have a responsibility to intervene in conflicts of smaller, less powerful nations?
@9H5LR5J2yrs2Y
No country should intervene in the politics of another. People in a certain country choose their own fate and any intervention is inherently undemocratic.
@9H53D5M2yrs2Y
No, each country is responsible for their own conflicts and problems no matter their ability to solve them on their own. The country should know their limits and powers and should avoid conflicts against other countries they are unable to handle.
@9H5LJ7Z2yrs2Y
No, because that would cause a greater war and just leading to a proxy war in the end.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How do you feel about the idea that not choosing sides is, in itself, choosing a side?
@9HVFMCLProgressive2yrs2Y
I'm agreeing with this because we never know. You see in both sides might be a fail, something that can be no good for the you or whatever you're standing for, so choosing no sides is definitely picking one.
@9HVFPHN2yrs2Y
It is, choosing no sides of the original argument means that you are choosing your own side.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Do you think non-interventionism is a sign of weakness or a strategic approach to foreign policy?
@9H5N84D2yrs2Y
i see it as a strategic approach to not intervene, it would keep our government from allowing those with strong inter-country ideologies from letting those effect the use of civilian funds in things we dont agree with.
@9H5N78C2yrs2Y
The only interventionalism that can be supported is humanitarian aid what need to be gradually inrecaused, and control institutions to help african states out of colonial shadow
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Does not giving advice to a friend in need empower them or leave them unsupported?
@9JJQZNS 1yr1Y
I believe as long as the foreign issue doesn't affect us or our allies we shouldn't intervene with the foreign issue/conflict in question is
@9JJQSZ8Republican1yr1Y
I would leave them because they have stupid points.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
In a globalized world, can any country truly afford to stay completely uninvolved in others' affairs?
@9HMT78P2yrs2Y
They cannot, crountries who are isolationists are ignorant to the people in the other countries.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How do you decide when it's better to listen and understand rather than to act and advise in tough situations?
@9KSLRBNIndependent 1yr1Y
Everyone is different when it comes to this and some issues for some are more important than other so it is different depending on the person.
@9KSKGZH1yr1Y
When the other side will not yield but is still treating you with respect and kindness.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
When a friend is making a mistake, do you think intervening is always the best option?
@9JDQH6V1yr1Y
It depends, if a friend is a making a mistake that could harm them or get them in legal trouble, then it's best to intervene. If it's a simple or silly mistake, then no because we all learn from our mistakes, and it creates development for our character.
Not always, let them make their mistake and learn from it.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How can being an observer rather than an active participant provide a different perspective on an event or issue?
@9L736PL 1yr1Y
you see how the thing is being done as an observer
@9L72NW21yr1Y
Being an observer rather then a active participant provide a different persepctive is not an issue because when being an observer you can see everything more through and clearly then what the non interventionism can see.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Would you feel relieved or abandoned if others stood back while you faced a significant challenge?
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Is it morally acceptable to do nothing in the face of human rights abuses in another country?
@9H8XRJZ2yrs2Y
Absolutely not, it is morally wrong to have the power the U.S has and do nothing to protect human rights violations in other countries.
@92VHLQ8Constitution2yrs2Y
Yes, foreign intervention will certainly lead to even more suffering and human rights abuses. Making foreign policy decisions based on emotion always end up in disaster. The world is a cruel and lawless place, lets not make it worse
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How can a country contribute to global wellbeing without physically intervening in conflicts?
@9HW6KRM2yrs2Y
To push ideals and implement rules to help solve it
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Imagine foreign events directly affecting your family; would you support your government's non-intervention stance then?
@9J52XP41yr1Y
I do not support 'non-interventionism". I think all people must deal witht he problems of the world.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Can a nation truly be sovereign if other countries are constantly intervening in its affairs?
@9H6VPSR2yrs2Y
I think that if we pulled ourselves out of foreign military problems and focus on protecting ourselves, we could ensure that our country is more respected and maybe have other countries follow our example.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How would you feel if another country tried to make important decisions for your own country?
@9H77QF42yrs2Y
I would not be happy, America should be able to make its own descisions
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What does it mean to you to have the autonomy to resolve your own conflicts without external interference?
@9L3W4DP1yr1Y
Of course, privacy is greatly appreciated and is suggested at in the constitution as a right, but there are some conflicts and issues that must have some kind of government intervention, so as to ensure that there is due process and that other constitutional rights are not violated.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How do you balance helping a friend in need with the risk of overstepping your boundaries?
@9KHDSTS1yr1Y
Carefully choose your words and respectfully give them some advice.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Have you ever regretted not helping someone in hindsight, and how might that relate to global policies?
@9JDNYQY1yr1Y
yes, because the person that i didn't help and just walked past them, could be going thorough real dept of money that the government isn't helping out.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
When has observing from a distance helped you gain a better understanding of a situation?
@9LBQLRV1yr1Y
Americans tend to have knee jerk reactions before knowing all the facts. I believe we should take the time to look at the multi sides and repercussions of an issue before taking action.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How might non-interventionism impact global economic disparities between countries?
@9HQMSHX2yrs2Y
less support, Less trade, and less resources is not good for America, so it would be bad.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
When should personal boundaries be respected over the desire to help someone you believe is in need?
@9KRYN9B1yr1Y
if that person asks for your help or if you ask that person do they want help
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How can listening be more powerful than intervening in an argument?
@9JT2F8J1yr1Y
Listening is more powerful than intervening in an argument because arrogance comes from disregarding other people's opinions, and not taking the initiative to understand their perspective, and to counter it as well when understanding the full concept.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What happens when someone chooses not to voice their opinion in a group discussion?
@9JDP8SM1yr1Y
then whatever is said is what they go with and they could be missing out on ideas
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How did you feel last time when you saw a country helping another — was it genuine aid or meddling in your view?
@9HWSR792yrs2Y
I've seen many countries step in and send out packages to Palestine during its time of need or even speak out about the issue in protests. I saw it as genuine aid.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What crucial life lessons have you learned that could apply to a country considering intervention in another’s affairs?
@9KTTKWB1yr1Y
I noticed that social media is dividing the country but the government should use it to see what's wrong with us and why are we divided
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How would you react if you were to learn that stepping back allowed someone else to grow, and how does this translate into foreign policy?
@9K8QJWX 1yr1Y
Well i personally would do anything to be above and not be back on anything but stepping back to allow someone else to grow is like giving birth to a baby that will help you in the future where they will retire you.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How can deliberately not participating in an activity change the outcome for the group?
@9JBMMMB1yr1Y
what? sure? Advocate for what feels right for you and such.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What are times where you've observed others' conflicts and learned something valuable by not stepping in?
@9L5VD7SRepublican1yr1Y
when in baskeball game there was trash talk and i did not get involved so i did not ghet a tech
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Where do you draw the line between respecting sovereignty and the need to prevent a humanitarian crisis?
@9J637NS1yr1Y
i draw the line whenever it effects everyone else and causes more outburst
