  • The Executive Survey General Information and Guidelines
    The Executive Survey General Information and Guidelines Dear Country Expert, In this section, we distinguish between the head of state (HOS) and the head of government (HOG). • The Head of State (HOS) is an individual or collective body that serves as the chief public representative of the country; his or her function could be purely ceremonial. • The Head of Government (HOG) is the chief officer(s) of the executive branch of government; the HOG may also be HOS, in which case the executive survey only pertains to the HOS. • The executive survey applies to the person who effectively holds these positions in practice. • The HOS/HOG pair will always include the effective ruler of the country, even if for a period this is the commander of foreign occupying forces. • The HOS and/or HOG must rule over a significant part of the country’s territory. • The HOS and/or HOG must be a resident of the country — governments in exile are not listed. • By implication, if you are considering a semi-sovereign territory, such as a colony or an annexed territory, the HOS and/or HOG will be a person located in the territory in question, not in the capital of the colonizing/annexing country. • Only HOSs and/or HOGs who stay in power for 100 consecutive days or more will be included in the surveys. • A country may go without a HOG but there will be no period listed with only a HOG and no HOS. • If a HOG also becomes HOS (interim or full), s/he is moved to the HOS list and removed from the HOG list for the duration of their tenure.

  • Algeria's Hirak at a Crossroad
    POLICY OUTLOOK POLICY OUTLOOK DISCUSSION PAPER Algeria’s Hirak at a Crossroad: Towards an Impasse or Progress? Elif Zaim (Enes Canlı - Anadolu Agency) This policy outlook examines the two years since the emergence of the Hirak. In doing so, it discusses the major events that took place, assessing the Algerian regime’s attempts to ease public pressure by making superficial changes while maintaining its grip on power. The outlook also focuses on the Hirak’s political performance and evaluates the movements’ predicaments as well as its future prospects. The opinions expressed in this policy outlook represent the views of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the views of the TRT World Research Centre. POLICY OUTLOOK he new year began hastily in Algeria as news broke of the acquittal of deposed President Abdelaziz Bouteflika’s younger brother Said, along with two former in- telligence chiefs by a military court. Said TBouteflika, Lieutenant General Mohamed Mediene, and Major General Athmane Tartag had been sentenced to 15 years in prison in September 2019 based on charges of conspiring against the state and army. Their arrests were part of a wave of detentions targeting Bouteflika’s close al- lies. These purges of the old guard have been pointed out as one of the most significant tangible results of the Hirak, the mass protest movement in which people took to the streets to publicly oppose the ailing President Bouteflika’s decision to run for a fifth term in February 2019. Since then, the movement had been demonstrating persistently every Then-President of Algeria Abdelaziz Bouteflika arrives to cast his week until the coronavirus outbreak.

  • The New Turkish Presence in North Africa
    December 2020 Regional Program Political Dialogue South Mediterranean The New Turkish Presence in North Africa: Ambitions and Challenges Said Saddiki Introduction Turkey and North Africa have been linked for centuries by political and cultural ties. But since the collapse of the Ottoman Empire and the establishment of the Turkish Republic in 1923, Turkey had isolated itself from its traditional spheres of influence, including North Africa. After the end of World War II, Turkey sought to strengthen its relations with the West and refrained from paying attention to Arab issues. With the rise of the Justice and Development Party (AKP) to power in 2002, under the leadership of Recep T. Erdogan, Turkey has gradually become more interested in North Africa again. In the post-2011 Arab uprisings, Turkey's foreign policy towards North Africa has seen a massive turning point. This period witnessed a growing influence of Islamist political movements, which might be potential allies of Turkey in the region. Turkey has sought to strengthen its influence through economic, political, and cultural means, and recently by military presence. However, there are many obstacles and challenges to Turkey's quest to revive its historical influence in the region. In this new Turkish strategy, North Africa is considered as a goal and a means at the same time: it is a target for Turkish trade and investment, as the region represents a huge market with about 200 million consumers, and a source for potential strategic alliances. It is also a gateway to sub-Saharan Africa. President Erdogan announced during his official visit to Algeria on January 26, 2020, that Turkey is seeking to increase the trade volume with Africa in the near future to 50 billion dollars, which reached 26 billion dollars in 20201.
