How did nixon's new federalism and detente shape his presidency?

1) New Federalism- This domestic policy focused on the federal government giving more power to the states in terms of how they spend funds on fixing social issues. The goal of this plan for Nixon was to role back the scope and size of the federal government. This shaped his presidency significantly, as advocates of states rights fully supported his policy.

2) Detente- This refers to Nixon's relations with the Soviet Union during the Cold War. This term marks a significant improvement in the relationship between the United States and Soviet Union. This couple year span affected his presidency in a positive manner, as people did not fear nuclear warfare as much as they did during the Kennedy administration.
