> *Step 1: *Define doctrine and identify why a president would want to

> A doctrine is an ideological platform that a president uses to advance a
> policy towards a country or region in order to accomplish foreign policy
> goals for the United States, so you will need to expand on this theme.
>
> Refer back to Assignment 1, and build on whatever doctrine you wrote about
> then. Say, for example, you selected the Truman Doctrine. Therefore, this
> is the only thing you will write about in Assignment 2 step 1.
>
> *Step 2:* Select one country you wrote about in Assignment 1 and describe
> the Cold War relationship that existed between it and the U.S.
> Before the presidential doctrine was announced. In the case of Truman, you
> would pick either the Soviet Union, Greece, or Iran, since all three were
> affected by his doctrine. If you are writing about the Eisenhower
> Doctrine, you would choose Lebanon or Egypt; if you wrote about the Kennedy
> Doctrine, you would have write about Cuba or Vietnam; if your wrote about
> the Nixon Doctrine, you would choose either Vietnam, Saudi Arabia or Iran;
> if you chose Carter, you would select either Iran or Afghanistan; and if
> you wrote about the Reagan Doctrine, you would select Nicaragua, Angola,
> Russia or Afghanistan (although there were several others).
>
> *Step 3:* Describe what effect the presidential doctrine you chose has had
> on regional or global affairs since it was announced during the Cold War.
> That is, how did the doctrine change the status quo regionally or globally
> after it was announced by the U.S.? What happened in Western Europe after
> the Truman Doctrine was announced? What happened in the Middle East after
> the Eisenhower Doctrine was announced? What happened with Cuba or Vietnam
> after Kennedy offered up his doctrine of flexible response? What happened
> in Southeast Asia or the Persian Gulf after the Nixon Doctrine went in
> effect? What happened in the Middle East after the Carter Doctrine was
> announced? What happened in Central America or Africa or the Middle East
> after Reagan announced his doctrine?
>
> *Step 4*: Refer back to the country you selected in step two and describe
> the relationship that currently exists between the U.S. and that country.
> How has the relationship changed between the U.S. and that country since
> the doctrine was announced?
>
> *Step 5:* Evaluate whether or not the presidential doctrine had had the
