BOTELHO, Teresa. The United States and the Arab Spring. Relações Internacionais [online]. 2011, n.30, pp.117-127. ISSN 1645-9199.
This article analyses the evolution of the American foreign policy priorities to the Middle East and Maghreb, the US role towards the uprisings in North Africa in order to democratization, as well as, the strategy presented by President Obama to support the reformist trends in that region. For that purpose we debate three hypotheses, the existence of a cognitive deficit in the US, of an analytical prejudice as a consequence of a reductive vision of the region and, finally, a global political retraction.
