MESA was founded in 1966 to promote scholarship and teaching on the Middle East and North Africa. The preeminent organization in the field, MESA publishes the International Journal of Middle East Studies and has nearly 2,500 members worldwide. MESA is committed to ensuring academic freedom of expression, both within the region and in connection with the study of the region in North America and elsewhere. As of December 2018, several academics visiting Iran have been accused of crimes against national security and remain under arrest. These accusations appear to be based on innuendo, fabricated evidence or even forced confessions. We write in particular regarding the cases of Meimanat Hosseini-Chavoshi, Abbas Edalat, Ahmadreza Djalali, and Wang Xiyue. Among those held in detention without charge is Dr.
