B) 2001 : the end of the "American century" ? The situation before the attacks: Key role in negotiation to restore the peace Ex: Oslo Agreement, 1993; signing ceremony in the White House Ex: NATO forces in Bosnia (1994), and Kosovo (1999) American economy still powerful, but suffers from global competition (trade balance in deficit; creditor = China) BUT, soft power; innovation center; attractive country (migrants)

9/11 and its impact on American foreign policy Text study Unilateralist policy is explicit New slogan « America first » Ex: War in Iraq, 2003. First preventive war (no aggression, suspicion of WMDs) launched without UN approval and against the judgment of allies such as Germany, France and Canada « War on Terror » = new crusade; the US is the leader; world considered by US foreign policy as divided in two (Good vs. Evil; « us » vs. « them »)
