'''Isolationism''' is a usually [[file:Nation.png]] [[Nationalism|nationalist]], [[file:Nonquadrant.png]] [[:Category:Non-Quadrant|non-quadrant]] ideology, which believes that its nation's interests are the most important, and it wants to keep the affairs of other countries at a distance.

The term ''"Isolationism"'' can be interpreted more broadly as a foreign policy of military and political non-interference in international affairs and in the internal affairs of sovereign states, coupled with [[File:Protect.png]] [[Protectionism|Economic Nationalism]] and cultural isolation, as well as with the impossibility of being in permanent [[File:Necon.png]] military alliances [[File:NeoComBall.png]], while maintaining the possibility of participation in temporary military alliances that meet the current interests of the state and in permanent international organizations of a non-military nature.

===[[File:NonIntervention.png]] Non-Interventionism===
'''Non-Interventionism''' is a variant of Isolationism which specifically opposes interference in the domestic political affairs of other countries, mostly on principle of opposing imperialism and/or war. However, it rejects ''complete'' isolation and may be in support of free trade and/or a peaceful form of international diplomacy. In this, they differ from the tendency of most isolationists, who often advocate for monoculturalism and a strong military programme.

The United States of America under President [[File:Coolidge.png]] Calvin Coolidge (from 1923 to 1929) was a great example of isolationism. Coolidge was a right-wing libertarian that wanted to shrink the government in many ways, especially by allowing more civil liberties, democracy, and capitalism to flourish. Coolidge also greatly reduced the US military budget to lower the US's impact on the world stage. He also rose tariffs to a MASSIVE extent to protect domestic industry. Basically, he wanted the United States to have an extremely small to non-existent impact on the rest of the world.

Between 1641 and 1853, the feudal [[File:Cball-Tokugawa.png]] Tokugawa Shogunate of Japan pursued a policy called ''Kaikin'', which forbade any contact with foreign countries. Despite that, Japan maintained limited trade and diplomatic relations with [[File:Cball-Qing.png]] Imperial China, the [[File:Cball-Joseon.png]] Joseon dynasty, and nearby [[File:Cball-Ryukyu.png]] Ryukyu Islands, as well as the [[File:Cball-DutchRepublic.png]] Dutch Republic, Japan's only Western trading partner for most of the period.

In the mid-1860s, Regent Heungseon Daewongun, father of Emperor Gojong, pursued a policy of strict foreign policy isolation as he strengthened the army and began to equip it with the latest Japanese weapons, reorganized the military system, transformed the coast guard. The policy of isolation has strengthened Korean patriotism and protected their culture. Heungseon Daewongun was able to protect Joseon from cultural imperialism and westernization and thus protect Korea's heritage from it. He also wanted to avoid engaging with the West, which would have been inevitable if Western countries had been allowed to trade freely, as this would have worsened the state's influence.

<blockquote>Main article: [[File:Helv.png]] [[Helvetic Model]]</blockquote>
In general, for most of its history, [[File:Cball-Switzerland.png]] Switzerland remained neutral in most military conflicts, including both World Wars. It also had a complicated relationship with the UN for a long time, with them not joining the organization until a 2002 referendum despite holding their second most important office.
 
Following the traditional policy of neutrality, Switzerland in the 1950s and early 1960s faced difficulties in participating in various plans for European integration. In 1948, it joined the Organization for European Economic Cooperation, but refrained from joining the European Economic Community (what would later become the [[File:Cball-EU.png]] EU <s>we know and "love" today</s>). The obvious political goals of this organization were unacceptable to Switzerland. However, it became one of the founding members of the European Free Trade Association in 1959, and in 1963 joined the Council of Europe, once again demonstrating its interest in European cooperation. In 1972, a national referendum ratified a free trade agreement with the EU, which by 1977 had phased out tariffs on all industrial products.

'In Turkmenistan, the ''Turkmen Model''' Is an economically center, totalitarian and culturally apathetic ideology. It is focused on a state capitalist economy focused on exporting natural resources, such as methane. It initially had a one-party system before deciding on a strong non-partisan executive.

===[[File:Antiimp.png]] Non-Interventionism===
'''Non-Interventionism''' is a variant of Isolationism that supports a foreign policy that doesn't interfere in the domestic politics and affairs of other countries, mostly for anti-war and anti-imperialist reasons. But rejects total cultural isolation and can support free trade and/or peaceful internationalism. Advocates of non-interventionism differ greatly from most isolationists as they can uphold multiculturalism and are sometimes not nationalists.

Isolationism is a usually nationalist, non-quadrant ideology, which believes that its nation's interests are the most important, and it wants to keep the affairs of other countries at a distance.

The term "Isolationism" can be interpreted more broadly as a foreign policy of military and political non-interference in international affairs and in the internal affairs of sovereign states, coupled with Economic Nationalism and cultural isolation, as well as with the impossibility of being in permanent military alliances , while maintaining the possibility of participation in temporary military alliances that meet the current interests of the state and in permanent international organizations of a non-military nature.

Variants

Moderate Isolationism

Moderate Isolationism is a version of isolationism that avoids being involved in most regional alliances, but isn't opposed to international co-operation or involving itself in international organizations.

Total Isolationism

Total Isolationism is a version of isolationism that completely avoids any interaction with the outside world in any context, and is opposed to joining any regional alliance or involving itself in intergovernmental organizations.

Non-Interventionism

Non-Interventionism is a variant of Isolationism which specifically opposes interference in the domestic political affairs of other countries, mostly on principle of opposing imperialism and/or war. However, it rejects complete isolation and may be in support of free trade and/or a peaceful form of international diplomacy. In this, they differ from the tendency of most isolationists, who often advocate for monoculturalism and a strong military programme.

History

USA

The United States of America under President Calvin Coolidge (from 1923 to 1929) was a great example of isolationism. Coolidge was a right-wing libertarian that wanted to shrink the government in many ways, especially by allowing more civil liberties, democracy, and capitalism to flourish. Coolidge also greatly reduced the US military budget to lower the US's impact on the world stage. He also rose tariffs to a MASSIVE extent to protect domestic industry. Basically, he wanted the United States to have an extremely small to non-existent impact on the rest of the world.

Japan

Between 1641 and 1853, the feudal Tokugawa Shogunate of Japan pursued a policy called Kaikin, which forbade any contact with foreign countries. Despite that, Japan maintained limited trade and diplomatic relations with Imperial China, the Joseon dynasty, and nearby Ryukyu Islands, as well as the Dutch Republic, Japan's only Western trading partner for most of the period.

Korea

Main article: Juche

In the mid-1860s, Regent Heungseon Daewongun, father of Emperor Gojong, pursued a policy of strict foreign policy isolation as he strengthened the army and began to equip it with the latest Japanese weapons, reorganized the military system, transformed the coast guard. The policy of isolation has strengthened Korean patriotism and protected their culture. Heungseon Daewongun was able to protect Joseon from cultural imperialism and westernization and thus protect Korea's heritage from it. He also wanted to avoid engaging with the West, which would have been inevitable if Western countries had been allowed to trade freely, as this would have worsened the state's influence.

Modern-day Korean isolationism exists within the borders of North Korea and their Juche ideology.
