Question What are some specific issues still being debated about foreign policy during the Cold War?
Answer Hello, Kat.
There are many issues still being debated around the world about foreign policy during the Cold War.
I will answer you now about the ongoing debates of US foreign policy.
Debates over many foreign policy and national security issues continue to be drawn along traditional left-right lines. A leading example is defense spending, where conservatives call for significant increases and liberals a shifting of resources to domestic needs. But the left and right are themselves each split between internationalists, who believe the U.S. should maintain a strong international presence, and isolationists who believe the U.S. should avoid unnecessary international entanglements. Indeed, this split has a much longer history in American foreign policy, extending well back before the Cold War and World War II, when isolationists opposed U.S. entry until the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor.
