Özet:

 

This paper seeks to examine the US foreign policy under Obama by first trying to  explore the rhetorical and practical changes brought by his administration to  American foreign policy making and then questioning his track record in the wake  of both the growing tide of Tea Party-led political opposition to his policies and  the rise of Asian nations such as China and India. Its central assumptions are as  follows: Firstly, Obama’s foreign policy presents a mix of apparent failures on  many key issues and rare achievements in some international crises. It is arguable  that Obama has been unable to pursue his own liberal-Democrat agenda so far and  instead maintained Bush-style “hard power-oriented” policies. Secondly, as a  rapidly rising opposition force, the American right is still powerful enough, with a  potential to revitalize a third and Tea Party-led rise of the movement, to reshape  the US politics. Thirdly, the study discusses how Obama views the emergence of  Asia, as a challenge or opportunity, and how he managed the transformation of  world politics in the light of this global power shift. It concludes that US policies  should adapt to these new realities of the world order if a peaceful transformation  is sought.
