Good Neighbor policy

   Also found in: Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.04 sec.

Good Neighbor policy

The efforts of US administrations between the two world wars to improve relations with Latin American and Caribbean states. The phrase was first used by President F D Roosevelt in his inaugural speech March 1933 to describe the foreign policy of his New Deal.

Following a prolonged period of economic and military intervention, Roosevelt withdrew US forces from Nicaragua and Haiti, renouncing any right to intervene, and concluding a treaty (1934) giving Cuba full independence. The good will engendered was to be significant in maintaining the unity of the Western hemisphere during World War II.
