Karyakin, V.V. Civilization anthropology of the American expansionism: from the Monroe doctrine to the global leadership

Abstract: The modern foreign political course of the USA towards retaining global leadership is held under the motto “partnership in the name of peace” and it is implemented via widening the scope of global functions of the North Atlantic Alliance. It fully conforms to the concept of civilization anthropology, studying the issues of civilization and large state formation development based upon the motivation dynamics of the elites and other socially important groups. In the XX century the USA took part in global confrontations of international systems three times, which included two World Wars and one “Cold” War. The main result was the growing role of the USA in the global arena. Throughout one century the USA transformed from an isolated Western hemisphere states into a global scale state in respect of its interests and influence. It led to the situation when no important problem may be resolved without participation of the USA or its direct counteraction.
