The Carter Administration and the Soviet Invasion of Afghanistan
openIl 24 dicembre del 1979 l'Unione Sovietica diede il via all'invasione dell'Afghanistan. Essa arrivò in un momento cruciale per il presidente americano Jimmy Carter, alle prese con gli ostaggi americani in Iran e a poco meno di un anno dalle elezioni presidenziali. La risposta americana fu molto ampia e vide un cambiamento radicale nella politica estera tenuta dal presidente Carter durante la sua presidenza, ridefinendo gli interessi e la strategia americana nel Golfo Persico e in Afghanistan. Lo scopo della Tesi è di riassumere e analizzare la reazione dall'amministrazione Carter all'invasione, chiedendosi come e perché gli Stati Uniti decisero di formulare la loro risposta e come essa risultò non essere pienamente efficacie.On December 24th, 1979, the Soviet Union launched the invasion of Afghanistan. It came at a crucial time for US President Jimmy Carter, grappling with American hostages in Iran and just under a year before the presidential election. The American response was very broad and saw a radical change in the foreign policy held by President Carter during his presidency, redefining American interests and strategy in the Persian Gulf and Afghanistan. The purpose of the Thesis is to summarize and analyze the Carter administration's reaction to the invasion, asking how and why the United States decided to formulate their response and how it turned out not to be fully effective
