The Middle East is the most militarised region in the world, where geopolitical factors remain predominant in shaping political dynamics. Another common feature of the regional landscape is the continued degeneration of communal relations as societal actors retreat into substate identities, while difference becomes increasingly violent, spilling out beyond state borders. The power of religion – and trans- state nature of religious views and linkages – thus provides the means for regional actors (such as Saudi Arabia and Iran) to exert influence over a number of groups across the region and beyond. This series provides space for the engagement with these ideas and the broader political, legal and theological factors to create space for an intellectual reimagining of socio- political life in the Middle East. Originating from the SEPAD project (www.sepad.org.uk), this series facilitates the reimagining of political ideas, identities and organisation across the Middle East, moving beyond the exclusionary and binary forms of identity to reveal the contingent factors that shape and order life across the region.

Seldom, in fact, has there been fruitful dialogue between related disciplines. Area studies, including Middle Eastern studies, has been particularly guilty of this sin of omission, as very rarely has it engaged broader theoretical debates about some of the core concepts it employs in its analysis. Concepts such as ‘state’, ‘sovereignty’, ‘legitimacy’, ‘revolution’ and many others are often employed freely and with little or no attention to their genealogies, their meaning and use in other disciplines and some of the theoretical discussions surrounding them. The present volume is an exception to the rule, situating its subject of study firmly at the crossroads of Middle Eastern area studies and political theory, deftly also drawing from international relations, history and political sociology. In the pages to come, answers to three key questions are explored: what are the roots of sovereign power and the supporting logic of governmentality in the Middle East; the timing, means and reasons why sovereign power is contested; and implications of the fragmentation of sovereign power for the ordering of space across the Middle East. This ambitious task of interrogating the centrality of sovereignty at the heart of the political history of contemporary Middle East is achieved through meticulous employment of analytical tools from several disciplines. The manuscript begins with an exploration of the links between domestic and regional developments, pointing particularly to the importance of linkages of sovereignty, agency and human action, and the state. Investigations of the region’s political history, the role of religion in shaping politics and sovereignty, and pent-up social and political pressures and their eruption in the 2010–11 mass uprisings follow. To bring the journey to a conclusion, the book ends with the responses of local states to the uprisings, and how the ensuing domestic repercussions continue to reverberate and to shape the region’s politics. Trauma can be intergenerational, and from the earliest days of pan-Arabism in the 1950s up until today, the political history of the Middle East has been marked by one traumatic experience after another. Structures and states are important, but so are the memories of the individuals who experience and respond to them. Across the Middle East, the states and political structures that proliferated were invariably authoritarian, shaping both the ways the states sought to legitimise their rule and the responses they elicited in their legitimation efforts. One of the most potent of the responses came from the domain of religion and its articulation of competing claims to authority. Agency, structures, states and conceptions of legitimacy at variance with each other have been the defining forces of Middle East politics, giving rise to geo-sectarian politics and creating zones of possibility and restriction. Simon Mabon - 9781526126474 Downloaded from manchesterhive.com at 10/05/2021 06:32:33PM via free access ix Foreword ix These zones, and the unfolding of politics more generally, occur in urban areas. Urban design and architecture, intentional or accidental, and transformative processes such as gentrification, shape both the ways in which life can be regulated and the popular responses that structures and sources of authority elicit. These responses have led to a long history of urban political unrest across the region, culminating with unsurpassed contagion in what optimistically came to be called the Arab Spring. The Spring was not to be, however, soon reversed by the forces of violence, war and army coups. The outcome, ultimately, was no better than what had been replaced: houses built on sand, geopolitical sectarianisation, realignments and an American president globally plying his trade of commerce, his only trade, along with a young and ambitious prince determined to put his mark on Middle Eastern history. Indeed ‘end of a dream’, as the book soberly concludes. What we have before us here is a rich text, informed by meticulous scholarship, extensive fieldwork and meaningful engagement with existing scholarship in the field. More importantly, the volume is theoretically informed, presenting new insights and interpretations, and examines, in both subtle and overt manners, the struggle over sovereignty, and its meaning and consequences, that has shaped so much of contemporary politics in the Middle East. One only hopes the present volume becomes a model for future generations of scholars to follow. As such, it serves as an excellent inaugural volume for the Identities and Geopolitics in the Middle East series.

As my journey into academia progressed, I later returned to the sorites paradox in an attempt to work through problems of borders, contestation and the limits of sovereign power in the Middle East where state power was becoming increasingly contested. It is the memory of a paradox that set me on this journey. While focusing on the Middle East, this book was written in countless countries where I have had the benefit of engaging with many people from different backgrounds whose continued support has enriched the project and although some may disagree, kept me sane. I have been fortunate to have spent a good deal of time travelling across the region where I have, on the whole, been met with incredible kindness.

  • Europe, Not the United States, Pays the Price of Failure in Syria Europe
    Jadal ! ! ! October 2015 Europe, not the United States, pays the price of failure in Syria Bassma Kodmani* Russian President Putin has decided that Syria is part of Russia’s near abroad, no less than Ukraine it seems, a territory where some vital national interests are at stake. He has predicted the fecklessness of Western powers well. Whether he is deploying his arsenal in Syria to fight Daesh or to bolster Assad, by moving massive military presence into Syria he has made himself the one player that counts and has put himself in a position to call the shots. He does not have a strategy to end the conflict. But he has one that he thinks will guarantee Russia’s influence in this pivotal country while the West !has no strategy to confront him. Europeans have been waiting for American leadership on Syria for the last four years. Some were ready to move against Assad after he used chemical weapons against civilians. The French were most committed to Obama’s red line, but Kerry and Lavrov found a way out with the agreement on Assad’s chemical arsenal, which was welcomed by all as a relief. The fact that Assad was saved and his ability to continue striking remained intact was deemed regrettable, but European countries thought they could live with the problem. Daesh was a minor concern back then which a few brave fighters from the Free Syrian Army could deal with. But this inaction had consequences, which are now felt acutely across Europe. ! The debate in Europe has since revolved around all the “good reasons” for keeping Assad in place and containing the conflict.

  • Syrian Foreign Policy and the United States: from Bush to Obama
    SYRIAN FOREIGN POLICY AND THE UNITED STATES: FROM BUSH TO OBAMA By Raymond Hinnebusch, Marwan Kabalan, Bassma Kodmani and David Lesch St Andrews papers on Contemporary Syria, 2010 1 2 Syrian Foreign Policy Foreword Raymond Hinnebusch These four analyses look at Syrian foreign policy, and particularly the ups and downs in Syria’s relationship with the US since Bashar al-Asad and George W. Bush nearly simultaneously came to power. One of the most striking and puzzling aspects of this relation is why a Syrian leader keen to improve relations with the West was soon the object of a concerted attempt to demonize and isolate him. Arguably this had more to do with the American politics than with Syria and had Kerry won the 2000 US election US-Syrian relations would almost certainly have taken a much different tangent and the history of the Middle East would have turned out very differently. The focus of the analyses is however on what makes Syria tick and how this explains its strategies in dealing with the hostile, aggressive and powerful US under Bush. The analysis by Hinnebusch looks particularly at the continuities from the Hafiz period, showing how Syria was in the late nineties on course for a peace settlement with Israel under US auspices. The failure of the peace negotiations set entrain a series of moves and countermoves that contributed to a crisis in Syrian- US relations, with Iraq and Lebanon the foci of their clashing agendas. The article finishes with a look at the fresh start between the two states at the beginning of the Obama administration.

S. Al-Zwainy Faculty of Engineering, Isra University, Amman, Jordan ABSTRACT This research paper gives a historic overview of the Palestnian architecture from the ancient times until today. The first chapter treats the ancient architecture. It introduces us to the first architectural findings on the territory of Palestine and the earliest Palestinian houses. We will see the differences of styles and buildings in prehistoric and ancient times from those built during Roma-Byzantine rule and later during ancient Greek-Roman influence. It is the time of the emergence and spread of Christianity, thus the period of building its temples - the churches. With the conquest of Palestine by the Arabs and islamization of the country the architecture suffers changes and is influenced by this new religion and new lifestile. Jerusalem becomes the beacon of islamic religion and culture. This period is the subject of the second chapter that gives us overview of the Palestinian architecture starting from Arabs installation in the 7th century and the crusaders wars, followed by the rule of Mamluk's dynasty. We finalize this period of influence in the Palestinian architecture with the rule of the Ottoman Empire. Despite the change of religions and cultures, churches and mosques are being constructed in each rule.

    5 This is the fifth in a series of ten papers published jointly by the EU In- stitute for Security Studies (EUISS) and the European Institute of the Mediterranean (IEMed) which aim to address ten critical topics for February 2010 Euro-Mediterranean relations. The papers have been commissioned with a view to formulating policy options on a set of issues which are central to achieving the objectives set out in the 1995 Barcelona Declaration and the Paris Declaration of 2008, as well as defining new targets for 2020 in the political, economic and social spheres. This fifth paper focuses on the way Europe approaches the issue of Islamic political movements in the Middle East and North Africa. The key message that emerges from the report is that it is time for Europe to engage with political Islam in this region. Both authors of the main chapters in this report – one from the Arab world and the other from Europe – eloquently make the argument that there is no prospect of a 10 credible democratic transformation of the Arab world without the full integration of Islamist movements into the political mainstream.

  • SPECIAL DOSSIER on the "SABRA and SHATILA" CASE in BELGIUM INTRODUCTION: NEW LIGHTS on the SHARON CASE Chibli Mallat
    SPECIAL DOSSIER ON THE "SABRA AND SHATILA" CASE IN BELGIUM INTRODUCTION: NEW LIGHTS ON THE SHARON CASE Chibli Mallat* "If you can look into the seeds of time, And say which grain will grow and which will not, Speak then to me."1 It would have been difficult to anticipate, at 9:30 a.m. on the morning of June 18, 2001, in the office of the Investigating Judge Sophie Huguet at the Brussels Palace of Justice, the far- reaching effects of the criminal complaint of 28 victims filed "against Ariel Sharon, Amos Yaron and all Israelis and Lebanese responsible'' for the massacres of Sabra and Shatila which took place on 16-18 September 1982. It would certainly have been hard to predict that the process would lead to a ruling of the Court of Cassation in February 2003 in favor of the plaintiffs, allowing the investigation and the trial to proceed; that the case would develop into the most serious crisis between Tel Aviv and a European capital since the establishment of the state of Israel; and that both the U.S. secretary of state and his defense counterpart would weigh in personally against the law on which the case was based. Nevertheless, one knew that the case would be an important test for international humanitarian law, for Belgian law, and for the future of justice and peace in the Middle East. Preparing the case had taken several years of academic and practical work.
