Description

Aspen Policy Books presents innovative thinking on America s most pressing national security challenges. This book is a collection of papers commissioned for the 2012 Aspen Strategy Group Summer Workshop, a bipartisan meeting of top national security experts. The papers evaluate the various drivers and outcomes of the Arab revolutions, all of which continue to bear an ever-greater influence on the formulation of American strategy in the Middle East. Authors examine the critical period of transition in Egypt, escalating violence and options of intervention in Syria, the threats associated with a nuclear Iran, balancing an effective strategy of immediate economic assistance and long-term investment in the region, and the Obama administration s successes and failures during the overall process of democratization.
