Question

-source: george washington, farewell address, 1796
which of the following developments in the early 1800s best represented the continuation of the ideas expressed in the passage?
(2 points)
supporting the french in the french revolutionary wars
a constitutional amendment banning political parties
the rise of a foreign policy of non-involvement
the creation of the alien and sedition acts

Explanation:

The passage outlines George Washington's foreign policy principle of avoiding permanent alliances with foreign powers to stay out of European conflicts and protect U.S. peace and prosperity. This is the core of isolationist/non-involvement foreign policy.

• Supporting the French in their revolutionary wars directly contradicts avoiding foreign entanglements.
• No constitutional amendment banning political parties exists, and this is unrelated to foreign policy.
• The Alien and Sedition Acts focused on domestic security and speech, not foreign non-involvement.
• The rise of a non-involvement foreign policy directly continues Washington's call to avoid permanent foreign alliances.

Answer:

The rise of a foreign policy of non-involvement
