The purpose of this article is, by examining T. Roosevelt`s blue print of World Federation, to answer the questions of what the American diplomacy is and of who had developed it. This paper is composed of three chapters. In the first, the intellectual origin of world federation will be examined. In the second, the problems such as what the world federation is and why T.Roosevelt regarded it as the ideal of the American diplomacy will be investigated. In the third, it will be studied how and by what method T.Roosevelt tried to actualize his dream-the self-governing world federation. As a result, the following points will be thoroughly maintained such as that the birth-place of T. Roosevelt`s idea of the world federation is the West, Roosevelt reinterpreted the Monroe Doctrine as the diplomatic theory which guarantees the possibility of military intervention in the world affairs, and that T. Roosevelt tried to achieve his plan of the world federation through the power politics.
