Revisiting Egyptian Foreign Policy towards Israel under Mubarak: From Cold Peace to Strategic Peace
This article is the first academic study of Egyptian foreign policy towards Israel under Hosni Mubarak (1981â2011). It challenges a deeply entrenched conventional wisdom that Egypt pursued a cold-peace foreign policy towards Israel throughout this period. We demonstrate that Egyptian foreign policy towards Israel was dynamic â comprising cold peace (1981â91), a hybrid foreign policy of cold peace and strategic peace (1991â2003), and a pure strategic peace posture (2003â11). We also use the case of Egyptian foreign policy towards Israel as a heuristic to develop a conception of a new type of peace, strategic peace, as an intermediary analytical category between cold and stable peace
