Measuring International Authority
This is the third of five ambitious volumes theorizing the structure of governance above and below the central state. This book is written for those interested in the character, causes, and consequences of governance within the state. This book sets out a measure of authority for seventy-six international organizations (IOs) from 1950, or the time of their establishment, to 2010 which can allow researchers to test expectations about the character, sources, and consequences of international governance. The international organizations considered are regional (e.g. the EU, Andean Community, NAFTA), cross-regional (e.g. Commonwealth of Nations, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation), and globa...

Structuring Conflict in the Arab World
This book examines how ruling elites manage and manipulate their political opposition in the Middle East. In contrast to discussions of government-opposition relations that focus on how rulers either punish or co-opt opponents, this book focuses on the effect of institutional rules governing the opposition. It argues rules determining who is and is not allowed to participate in the formal political arena affect not only the relationships between opponents and the state, but also between various opposition groups. This affects the dynamics of opposition during prolonged economic crises. It also shapes the informal strategies that ruling elites use toward opponents. The argument is presented using a formal model of government-opposition relations. It is demonstrated in the cases of Egypt under Presidents Nasir, Sadat and Mubarek; Jordan under King Husayn; and Morocco under King Hasan II.

Passion et sincérité, valeurs qui m'ont guidé dans ma vie de reporter depuis plus de 50 ans, au service de mes trois illustres Souverains. J'ai vécu une exaltante aventure qui a fait de moi un témoin privilégié, toujours prompt à apporter ma contribution au photo- journalisme marocain. Ce parcours, je le dois aux grands hommes que j'ai eu le privilège de côtoyer. Aussi, je suis heureux de leur rendre dans ce livre un vibrant hommage.
Muslim Perceptions and Receptions of the Bible
The articles brought together in this volume deal with Muslim perceptions and uses of the Bible in its wider sense, including the Hebrew Bible or Old Testament as well as the New Testament, albeit with an emphasis on the former scripture. While Muslims consider the earlier revelations to the People of the Book to have been altered to some extent by the Jews and the Christians and abrogated by the Qurʾān, God's final dispensation to humankind, the Bible is at the same time venerated in view of its divine origin, and questioning this divine origin is tantamount to unbelief. Muslim scholars approached and used the Bible for a variety of purposes and in different ways. Thus Muslim historians r...
Free Speech and Censorship Around the Globe
This book focuses on regulatory challenges of creating and sustaining freedom of speech and freedom of information two decades after the fall of the Berlin wall, in global, comparative context. Some chapters overview, others address specific issues, or describe country case studies. Instead of trying to provide an exhaustive assessment which in one volume might not reach deeper analyzes of contextual details, this book will shed light on and help better understanding of general challenges for freedom of speech and information through varying comparative examples and highlighting important regulatory questions.
Mohammed VI, derrière les masques
15 ans après son accession au pouvoir, le roi du Maroc reste un inconnu et un intouchable. Derrière les masques du roi moderne, proche de son peuple, seul dirigeant du monde musulman ayant su libéraliser son régime en douceur, se cache un personnage plus ambigu. Commandeur des croyants (mais premier vendeur d'alcool du pays), chef des armées (dont il craint les généraux), marionnettiste de la vie politique (dont il méprise les ténors), "M6" tient à ses pouvoirs quasi absolus sur la Justice, la politique et l'économie. Au risque de se laisser déborder par ses emportements, d'être éclaboussé par les bévues de son entourage (comme la grâce d'un pédophile espagnol) ou même d'a...
