“…They were perceived in the foreign policy doctrines by Robert Packenham (1973) during the Cold War and again recognized in similar manifestations by Castro Santos (2010) and Teixeira (2010) after the Cold War period. The Liberal Tradition crosses party lines and unites Democratic liberal internationalists and Republican neoconservatives.…”

This study will exam the relative importance of values and interests in Obama's foreign policy, focusing on crucial cases: the military actions related to Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Non-Syria, Al-Qaeda and ISIL. We will argue that his "leading from behind" strategy is not very distant from the foreign and defense strategies of his post-Cold War predecessors, by which democracy is seen as an assurance to security. According to Obama's strategy, Americans will only provide support for the building of democracy in the target countries, while this task should be performed by the locals themselves. Americans will provide military training to the new governments as well so they can be responsible for their own security, including preventing regrouping of terrorists in their soil. If Obama opposes the imposing of democracy by the use of force, empirical data shows that his administration is "not prepared to accept" any option that threats US security or American liberal-democratic values, bringing in this way values and interests very close to each other.

“…No entanto, apenas um artigo utilizava a técnica de análise de conteúdo. Trata-se do artigo de Santos (2010), que aplicou a técnica a 415 discursos de Presidentes e Secretários de Estado dos EUA entre 1989 e 2008 com o objetivo de comparar a frequência das menções à democracia e à segurança.…”

RESUMO Introdução: O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar o potencial da análise do ‘texto como dado’ nas pesquisas em Relações Internacionais. A partir do diagnóstico de discrepância na proporção de publicações que adotam essa abordagem de análise textual, apresentamos as principais metodologias na dimensão que vai do ‘texto como texto’ ao ‘texto como dado’ para destacar a oportunidade existente. Visando estimular a produção na área, desenvolvemos um caso prático e replicável, onde respondemos à seguinte pergunta: Diante do conflito Israel e Palestina, como representantes do Brasil, Estados Unidos, Israel e Palestina emocionalmente se expressaram em discursos proferidos nos encontros do Conselho de Segurança das Nações Unidas (CSNU)? Materiais e Métodos: Através de revisão estruturada da literatura, é apresentado o estado atual do campo da análise textual no âmbito das Relações Internacionais. Um caso prático é desenvolvido de forma integralmente replicável na linguagem R com a aplicação da análise de sentimentos aos 77.857 discursos proferidos no CSNU de 1995 a 2019. Resultados: Demonstramos o potencial da abordagem do ‘texto como dado’ para realizar análises sistemáticas de grandes acervos documentais e sua complementariedade a estudos qualitativos que tratam de obter conclusões científicas através da abordagem do ‘texto como texto’. Diante do exemplo prático, mostramos como a abordagem do ‘texto como dado’ fornece uma análise bem-informada e consistente sobre os acontecimentos reais e inflexões expressos no conteúdo dos discursos, sem a necessidade de intensa dedicação manual prévia. Discussão: O estado atual das pesquisas em Relações Internacionais apresenta evidente discrepância na produção de pesquisas com a abordagem do ‘texto como dado’ quando comparada à abordagem do ‘texto como texto’. Acreditamos que este cenário possa ser resultado da ausência de treinamento em metodologias contemporâneas e intensivas em abordagens computacionais. O artigo enfrenta esse desafio através de exercício teórico e metodológico totalmente replicável.

“…The pillars of the American foreign policy doctrine in the post-Cold War era Based on Packenham (1973) and in Hartz (1955), Castro Santos (2010a) identified the basic pillars of the American foreign policy doctrine in the post-Cold War era, linking them to the American liberal tradition.…”

“…Using quantitative and qualitative content analysis of 415 speeches of the first three post-Cold War Presidents and their Secretaries of State, Castro Santos (2010a) identified the pillars of American foreign policy doctrines that justify the exporting of democracy even if by the use of force-the most difficult means to be employed in the name of democracy. When the 240 speeches of the Secretaries of Defense were included in the analysis, the pillars formerly identified were confirmed.…”

The essential role of democracy in the Bush Doctrine: the invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan

Everyone knows that democracy played a role in the Bush Doctrine. What not everyone knows is that this role was essential for the doctrine to be put into operation under which the Iraq invasion was prepared and launched. We argue moreover that, even if aggressive, the Bush doctrine is compatible with the American Liberal Tradition. To demonstrate these arguments we analyze the links between democracy, security, and the US national interests as expressed in the pillars of the American foreign policy since the end of Cold War. The consequential belief of the Bush Administration on the positive effect of exporting democracy by the use of force to Afghanistan and Iraq to fight terrorism will be remarked. It will be shown, however, that in the first years of the Bush Administration, among the justifications for the military interventions in the two countries, security reasons prevailed over democratic concerns, although the latter was significantly present since the early hours after September 11. It was only when it became clear that WMDs did not exist in Iraq that the exporting of democracy as the ultimate weapon to fight terrorism grew remarkably and prevailed over security reasons to invade those rogue states. The paper uses quantitative and qualitative content analysis of the speeches of President Bush and his Secretaries of State and Defense.
