The American Soft Policy Towards Algeria Beyond The 9/11 Attacks

Résumé: This research delves into the role of soft power within the context of US-Algeria relations following the events of 9/11. Following World War II, the United States emerged as the dominant global power, employing a blend of soft and hard policies to maintain its superpower status and counter the Soviet Union. While utilizing military interventions and employing hard power tactics, the US also employed soft power strategies to safeguard its interests on a global scale. By focusing on Algeria as a case study, this study investigates how the US implemented soft power measures to safeguard its interests and security in the region. Through the utilization of historical and analytical approaches, coupled with qualitative methods, the study aims to comprehend the practical application of American soft power in Algeria. The findings reveal the challenges faced by US authorities in comprehending Algeria's landscape, primarily due to its conservative ideological stance shaped by various events. Furthermore, factors such as neighboring countries' facilitation of Israeli normalization and the US recognition of Western Sahara's dependency on Morocco add further complexity to the situation. By delving deeper into American foreign policy towards Algeria beyond the 9/11 attacks, this study seeks to provide a comprehensive understanding of the subject matter.
