Hegemonic Stability Theory: How It Relates To The Middle East
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. The hegemonic stability theory, which stresses the importance of a central stabilizing force that keeps a international system from breaking apart, can readily be applied to the manner by which the middle east has taken such a formidable stance within the political world. What is at the heart of middle eastern hegemony, and why is it important to understand the phenomenon of associated global conflict? These are two immensely important questions that share the same answer. At the core of global strife are the following explosive issues: nuclear power and economic development; from these two considerations grow all other reasons that instigate war between world countries, such as it being a matter of foreign policy; the concept that a free world is a safer world; the spread of democracy; to protect one�s own interests; and to create allies. All these reasons for global conflict may appear worthy, but they are really just a means by which to gain and maintain hegemonic power. One might readily argue, however, that the middle east asserts its hegemony in the most socially, economically and politically damaging ways as possible, representing the cyclical composition of its existence.

Henry Kissinger and the Sinai Accords
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 13 page paper discussing Henry Kissinger�s involvement in the negotiation of the Sinai Accords and the affects of the accords on the Arab-Israeli conflict. The Sinai I and II Accords between Egypt and Israel in 1974 and 1975 were largely the result of negotiation efforts made by U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger in his step-by-step process aptly named �shuttle diplomacy� between the two countries. Kissinger spent over three years intervening between Egypt and Israel eventually finding concessions which resulted in Israel�s occupying army withdrawing from parts of the Egyptian Sinai. Kissinger did not want an American presence in the Sinai but eventually both sides agreed to Sinai II only if there was an American civilian presence and American funding for an Egyptian surveillance station to match the Israeli surveillance station on either side of the buffer zone. After Kissinger�s retirement in 1977, progress in the Middle East seemed to stall and negotiations were taken up by President Carter in 1978 with the development of the Camp David Accords. While Kissinger�s peace keeping efforts were applauded, several issues within the Middle East remained untouched including the U.S. non-recognition of Palestine despite its acceptance by the UN. This caused a great deal of additional tension in the area as many of the Arab nations preferred negotiations through the UN and not those initiated by the U.S. Conflicts still continue in the Middle East despite various peace accords over the years and Kissinger himself once commented that the area must find �some solution which balances the Arab need for self-esteem with Israeli security. I�m not sure it exists�. Bibliography lists 9 sources.
