Given the recent natural disasters in Haiti and Chile, and American assistance to to the people of both countries, we at theRoundtable have decided to provide some examples of US foreign aid over the past century. We divided that period into foursections: Colonialism, the Marshall Plan period of post-World War II reconstruction, the Cold War, and Modern Disaster Relief.
