Abstract

Adopting an epistemic communities approach, this article outlines how U.S. foreign policy elites have constructed their response to recent events in Egypt. It argues that through the discursive deployment of elite power a neoliberal-security policy paradigm has been constructed and institutionalised. This policy seeks to promote a democratic transition in the long-term whilst also allowing U.S. elites to pursue more immediate security interests. However, tensions in the policy are evident as a result of continued flows of U.S. foreign aid to Egypt that are contributing to the continuation of an Egyptian-Military-industrial-commercial complex that threatens the likelihood of any democratic transition.
