Abstract
PALOMO GARRIDO, Aleksandro. The Fight Against Terrorism and the New International Security System after September 11: A Logical Consequence?. Foro int [online]. 2016, vol.56, n.4, pp.941-976. ISSN 0185-013X.
This paper seeks to analyze whether the decisions taken by the Bush government following September 11, 2001, with the aim of securing the order and security of the international system, were adequate. The events of 9/11 marked a turning point in the international security system. Its significance arises not from the consequences of the attack in itself, but due to the decisions taken by the US government following the attack. These decisions, assembled under the flag of the fight against terrorism, have frequently been presented as the logical consequence of the events of 9/11. Were these decisions solely motivated by 9/11, and what consequences have they had for the international security system?
