Thesis (M.A.) from the year 2009 in the subject American Studies -
Culture and Applied Geography, grade: 2,3, Free University of
Berlin (John F. Kennedy Institut), language: English, abstract:
Abstract This paper is a critical analysis of potential
Arab/Islamic anti-Americanism in Saudi Arabia. Particularly the
significance of the Gulf War of 1990/1991 and the resulting
stationing of US troops inside the Saudi kingdom for the
Arab/Islamic anti-Americanism will be analyzed. Hereby, this
project seeks to investigate whether the reactions to the American
presence in Saudi Arabia and the broader Arab/Islamic region are of
anti-American nature or whether they reveal other proprieties. With
the help of various Arabic and American sources the research
question is approached and compared from both sides. The inclusion
of Arabic sources of Saudi opposition leaders allows this paper to
examine which leitmotifs dominate the discourse on American
soldiers in Saudi Arabia. Overall, four main reactions are
identified and discussed with the means of a qualitative analysis:
Foreigners and disbelievers in Saudi Arabia, opposition to the
Saudi royal family, an exploitation of anti-Americanism, and a
liberal movement. The resulting main themes lead to this paper's
thesis that an anti-American characterization of the reactions to
the American troop presence during the Gulf War is a questionable
simplification of the situation.
