International Norms in the Middle East

International Norms in the Middle East

Order Description

Pick one country facing a significant foreign policy challenge in the Middle East. How have regulatory and constitutive norms shaped the way that country has responded to the challenge? Which norms have had constraining effects and which norms have been ignored? Explain why have some norms had a larger impact than others.

I would like to use the United States. Sovereignty should be one of the norms discussed.
