Thesis (D.L.S.)--Georgetown University, 2024.

An enduring belief shared by the United States and its allies within the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) is that a set of mutually shared principles underpins the alliance, espousing the view that member nations adhering to these principles will ensure peace and security within the transatlantic area. Under this belief, security is accomplished through a shared commitment to democracy, individual liberty and the rule of law. Taken a step further, the belief holds that a values-based philosophy prevents democratic nations from going to war against one another. This assumption is actually codified within NATO's founding charter and has been consistently repeated over the last seventy years within the strategic documents and public pronouncements made by various NATO leaders. For the alliance, these democratic principles are upheld to be universal, so certain standards of behavior are assumed to be expected from each member nation. In this context, NATO, which is widely considered to be the world's most powerful political-military alliance, views itself not only as a security organization but a community of shared values, a claim that is often heard within the alliance. In recent years, however, NATO has witnessed the rise of illiberalism, or movement away from those very democratic principles and towards authoritarianism, nationalism, and populism. This is seen among several member nations, including the United States. In this context, the democratic principles that{A0}uphold NATO appear to be under attack, and this could threaten the alliance's cohesion as well as its credibility. Russia figures prominently in this phenomenon. The Kremlin views not only NATO's military power but its democratic principles as posing threats to Russia's own security and way of life. Interestingly, the autocratic leadership exhibited by Russian president Vladimir Putin has found a certain appeal among various NATO leaders. Among them, Hungary's Viktor Orban has unapologetically embraced illiberalism, claiming that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to democracy, which he insists that Hungary still is. Using the lens of postmodernism, this thesis examines the phenomenon of rising illiberalism within the NATO alliance. Can democracy, individual liberty, and rule of law flourish under autocratic leaders? Does illiberalism put NATO's credibility at risk? Can illiberalism coexist with liberal democracies? This thesis explores these questions and seeks to uncover why illiberalism is happening.
