U.S. Policy in a Changing Middle East
 
The dramatic recent events in Tunisia and Egypt have had an immediate impact across the region and on the Washington policy community.  Looking forward, U.S. policy will need to continue to adapt itself to the realities of a region changed by these events.  How might the ongoing developments in Tunisia and Egypt impact the rest of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA)?  How will these events influence the state of U.S. relations with the region's governments?  And with the people of the region?  What adjustments will U.S. policymakers need to make in reaction to recent events?  How are the longer-term prospects for democracy across the MENA region affected?  What next steps can the U.S. government take to support transitions to democracy in Egypt and Tunisia, and what lessons can be drawn by U.S. policymakers for supporting democracy and human rights across the region?
