The Issue of Women's Rights in Egyptian Foreign Policy

Abstract: Egyptian foreign policy is at a fulcrum in terms of the world situation. Economic policy decrees that ties with the Western World be maintained, while defense policy makes it imperative that ties with neighboring middle East and African countries take precedence. The United States, in particular, sees itself as a leader in the establishment of human rights on a global level. Foreign policy reflects these concepts. Third world countries such as Egypt are dependent on the foreign aid and good relationship with the United States and other Western powers for continued economic development. This 10 page paper explores the stand of Egyptian policy on issues of Women's rights and the role of women. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
