Uma análise sobre a guerra civil no Iêmen.

Abstract

Located in the south of the Arabian Peninsula, Yemen is a young country, the result of the unification of the north and south of the territory in 1990. After the Arab Spring of 2011, protests by the population against the dictatorial regime of Ali Abdullah Saleh, triggered a greater fragmentation of the country, already destabilized. Beginning in 2011, Yemen became the stage for the discontent of its citizens, in addition to the hostility of actions from the government. Considering this, the objective of the present work was to analyze the civil conflict in Yemen and its consequences in the international environment, based on the actions of foreign powers. To this end, we sought to present the internal conditions of the conflict and consequently interpret them, including the problematization of the cultural and religious differences of the Yemeni population. The methodology of the work was based on bibliographical, historical, explanatory and descriptive research based on the Case Study method. Neoclassical Realism was used as the theoretical basis, because it used the internal and external variables of the conflict directly related. From the analysis of the conflict, it was observed that the intervention of neighboring countries as well as states far from the Arabian Peninsula, contributed to the situation in Yemen today. Disagreements among the Yemeni people also bear great responsibility for the country's internal weakness.
