Abstract

THE UNITED STATES is engaged in what President George W. Bush has called a "generational challenge" to instill democracy in the Arab world. The Bush administration and its defenders contend that this push for Arab democracy will not only spread American values but also improve U.S. security. As democracy grows in the Arab world, the thinking goes, the region will stop generating anti-American terrorism. Promoting democracy in the Middle East is therefore not merely consistent with U. S. security goals; it is necessary to achieve them. But this begs a fundamental question: Is it true that the more democratic a country becomes, the less likely it is to produce terror ists and terrorist groups? In other words, is the security rationale for promoting democracy in the Arab world based on a sound premise? Unfortunately, the answer appears to be no. Although what is known about terrorism is admittedly incomplete, the data available do not show a strong relationship between democracy and an absence of or a reduction in terrorism. Terrorism appears to stem from factors much more specific than regime type. Nor is it likely that democ ratization would end the current campaign against the United States. Al Qaeda and like-minded groups are not fighting for democracy in the Muslim world; they are fighting to impose their vision of an Islamic state.

22. Why Middle East Studies Missed the Arab Spring.

Author

Game III, F. Gregory

Subjects
*POLITICAL change
Abstract

The article discusses why experts on the Middle East generally failed to anticipate popular uprisings that have ousted two long-standing rulers in the region, Hosni Mubarek in Egypt and Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali in Tunisia, and threaten the regimes of others. The author notes he himself argued in a 2005 article that authoritarian Arab governments offered the best hope for future stability, and that the U.S. should refrain from promoting democracy in the region. He proceeds to examine developments that have undermined ruling stability in the Arab world.
