Conflicts in the Middle East and Africa
This book explores the multifaceted dynamics between state and non-state actors in public policy during and after conflict in the Middle East and Africa. It offers case studies and policy-relevant ideas for conflict-affected areas to move forward in a more sustainable manner. Following the Arab Spring revolutions, civil wars have plagued the Middle East and North Africa region, along with other countries in Africa.

Yet, focusing on understanding conflicts in the Middle East and Africa offers an important vie...
Unveiling Developmental Disparities in the Middle East
Unveiling developmental disparities in the Middle East is essential for understanding the complex socio-economic landscape of the region, often containing critical inequalities and varied economic growth. Despite being rich in resources and cultural heritage, many countries in the Middle East face significant challenges, including political instability, economic volatility, and social unrest, which hinder equitable development. Examining these factors contributing to inequality may help scholars and government officials better address the barriers to sustainable development. Understanding present disparities in the region is crucial for policymakers, international organizations, and communit...

Yemen - U.S. Relations: the External and Internal Dynamics: 18th CENTURY - 2012
US-Yemeni relations are enveloped in mysteries that have never been fully unraveled. Historically, these relations have fluctuated dramatically-improving momentarily before deteriorating once again. The literature on Yemen-US relations is riddled with inconsistencies and rarely delves deep into the dynamics at the core of this relationship, often overlooking the underlying complexities. This book addresses these key issues by exploring the myriad dynamics that drive bilateral relations between the two nations. It asserts that Yemen-US relations are governed by a complex array of factors, broadly categorized as external and internal. These dynamics are fluid, shifting with the ever-changing g...

Women's Empowerment and Public Policy in the Arab Gulf States
This open access book explores the various dimensions of women’s empowerment in public policy in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region, with a particular focus on Qatar, comparing the country to the other Gulf states. Through its rich compilation of empirical qualitative research, the text unpacks the various ways in which women’s empowerment materializes in the GCC context, providing insights into public policy perspectives in high-income rentier states more broadly. The Arab world has long been part of the global dialogue on women’s economic and political empowerment and the GCC has, over the past decade, situated women’s empowerment amongst their respective national priorities...
Transnational Generations in the Arab Gulf States and Beyond
This book examines the recent migration phenomenon in the Arab Gulf states for work and residence. It sheds light on the transnationality of diverse groups of migrants from different generations, and unpacks how migrants’ multiple senses of belonging, orientations and adaptive strategies have shaped contemporary migration in the Gulf region. In turn, the analysis presented here shows how the Arab Gulf states’ citizenship and educational policies affect second-generation migrants in particular. Through a series of fine-grained ethnographic case studies, the authors demonstrate the ways in which these second-generation migrants construct their identities in relation to their putative ‘ho...
NEOLİBERALİZM KISKACINDA IRAK DEMOKRASİSİ
Demokrasi Teşviki yirminci yüzyıl itibarıyla Amerikan dış politikasının vazgeçilmez bir unsuru olarak yerini almış ve ABD demokrasi teşviki politikasını liberal-demokratik değerlerin ve serbest piyasa ekonomisi ilkelerinin yayılmasında bir araç olarak kullanmıştır. Yakın tarihte en önemli örneğini Başkan Woodrow Wilson’un Birinci Dünya Savaşı sonrasında ‘dünyayı demokrasi için daha güvenli bir yer yapma’ çağrısı oluşturmaktadır. Soğuk Savaş döneminde komünizme karşı ideolojik bir mücadele aracı olarak kullanılan Demokrasi Teşviki politikası uygulamaları ABD’deki 11 Eylül 2001 saldırıları sonrasında Başkan Bush’un söylem ve ...

Europe and the MENA Region
This book provides an overview of the National Dialogue design process in fragile settings at the national, regional, and international levels in the MENA region. It provides a comparative analysis at the international level by examining the Yemeni NDC 2013 with those of Afghanistan and Ethiopia, and at the regional level, focusing on Iraq and Tunisia. It also goes beyond the traditional exploration of political and social conflicts by adding a rich theoretical layer of analysis of Humanitarian Aid and its contribution to war economies in the Arab region. Finally, it examines the news frames used in the coverage of the conflicts in the Middle East and North Africa and takes one step further to integrate a media lens by analysing the extent of the media coverage devoted to the Yemeni and Syrian wars by four prestigious European online news platforms. This incisive book presents a radical contrast between the on-ground reality of the conflicts in the region, distinguished by various social, political, economic, geographic, and humanitarian challenges, and its discordant abstract portrayal in European online media.
