Autorenporträt
Whitelaw Reid (1837-1912) was an esteemed American journalist, politician, and diplomat, whose contributions to the public discourse were notable during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Best known for his authoritative stance on expansionism, Reid's scholarship was encapsulated in his work 'Problems of Expansion' (1900), which offered a comprehensive analysis of American foreign policy and imperialist tendencies at the turn of the century. In this book, Reid presents a thought-provoking discussion on the ramifications of American annexations following the Spanish-American War, pertaining to both the Philippines and Puerto Rico. Reid's approach in 'Problems of Expansion' combines astute observations with historical precedents, positioning him as a significant commentator on the challenges and responsibilities accompanying America's emerging status as a global power. His literary style is characterized by its rigorous logic and articulate presentation, aimed at providing his readers with a sober perspective on the nation's trajectory into international politics. As the owner and editor of the New York Tribune, one of the country's leading newspapers of the time, Reid's public influence was further enhanced by his positions including serving as the U.S. Ambassador to France and as a vice-presidential candidate. Reid's work remains a valuable source for understanding the intellectual and political climate surrounding American expansionism in the early 20th century.
