Which of the following best describes what has sometimes been called the "Reagan doctrine"?

A) American military superiority was a source of international tensions.
B) America had to maintain military superiority and support anti-communism.
C) Democracy in Africa was the central foundation for economic prosperity.
D) The United States was only going to pursue international policy unilaterally.

The Reagan Doctrine was a strategy orchestrated and implemented by the United States under the Reagan Administration to oppose the global influence of the Soviet Union during the final years of the Cold War. Central to this doctrine was the idea that the U.S. would support anti-communist movements worldwide, particularly in Latin America, Asia, and Africa, as a way to counter Soviet-backed communist governments and insurgencies. This policy was part of a broader strategy to maintain and assert American military superiority and influence globally, with a specific focus on containing and rolling back the spread of communism.
