Problem with this article[edit]

This article doesn't cite anyone who actually calls this alleged doctrine the Clinton Doctrine. Probably a good candidate for AFD. Tempshill 17:13, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Who says you have to? What the Clinton Doctrine is defined as is fairly well-known-- which brings me to my next point: Why is this article considered non-notable? The Clinton Doctrine IS a foreign policy doctrine of the United States, and people, including academics in the foreign relations field, do use it to describe the humanitarian slant that the United States took after the end of the Cold War. After the Kennan Doctrine, the Clinton Doctrine was intended to be a major shift in post-Cold War thinking. Obviously, 9/11 changed this, but while it was in effect, it guided American foreign policy for two terms of Clinton, and even the first part of Bush's first year in office.GrumF14 18:07, 5 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Historians have been debating the issue for years with no consensus. The current version now makes clear the multiple possiblities for "Clinton Doctrine". Rjensen (talk) 03:25, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Clinton Doctrine not a clear statement?[edit]

The article claims that the Clinton Doctrine is just a small quote blurb. As far as I know, however, the Clinton Doctrine is a rather large set of guidelines on troop deployment, with the NSS-96 (http://www.au.af.mil/au/awc/awcgate/nss/nss-96.htm) at its core. While the general idea of the doctrine is captured in this wikipedia article, it seems to suggest that no proper elaboration of the ideas was ever made, while Clinton in fact did codify his belief in (humanitarian) interventionism. tijmz 20:37, 14 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Citation[edit]

The citation for Clinton regretting Rwanda comes from My Life, p. 593, published by Alfred A. Knopf, 2004 in New York.GrumF14 18:02, 5 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
