It has been accepted for inclusion in Case Western Reserve Journal of International Law by an authorized administrator of Case Western Reserve University School of Law Scholarly Commons. Case Western Reserve Journal of International Law 48 (2016) President Obama’s Approach to the Middle East and North Africa: Strategic Absence Paul Williams* Many commentators argue that the White House does not have a policy regarding the Middle East and North Africa. Based on observations of the White House’s foreign policy decisions over a breadth of seven years, this article argues that The White House does have a clear policy and it is one of Strategic Absence. The term Strategic Absence is used to describe political behavior that arises from a belief that sometimes, in foreign affairs, it is better to be absent rather than present. Strategic Absence has led to a degradation of American influence in the Middle East and has contributed to deteriorating conflict situations in Syria, Iraq, Yemen, and Libya.

  • Sourcing the Arab Spring: a Case Study of Andy Carvin's Sources During the Tunisian and Egyptian Revolutions
    Sourcing the Arab Spring: A Case Study of Andy Carvin’s Sources During the Tunisian and Egyptian Revolutions Paper presented at the International Symposium on Online Journalism in Austin, TX, April 2012 Alfred Hermida Associate professor, Graduate School of Journalism, University of British Columbia Seth C. Lewis Assistant professor, School of Journalism & Mass Communication, University of Minnesota Rodrigo Zamith Doctoral student, School of Journalism & Mass Communication, University of Minnesota Contact: Alfred Hermida UBC Graduate School of Journalism 6388 Crescent Road Vancouver, BC, V6T 1Z2 Canada Tel: 1 604 827 3540 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract This paper presents a case study on the use of sources by National Public Radio's Andy Carvin on Twitter during key periods of the 2011 Tunisian and Egyptian uprisings. It examines the different actor types on the social media platform to reveal patterns of sourcing used by the NPR social media strategist, who emerged as a key broker of information on Twitter during the Arab Spring. News sourcing is a critical element in the practice of journalism as it shapes from whom journalists get their information and what type of information they obtain. Numerous studies have shown that journalists privilege elite sources who hold positions of power in society. This study evaluates whether networked and distributed social media platforms such as Twitter expand the range of actors involved in the construction of the news through a quantitative content analysis of the sources cited by Carvin. The results show that non-elite sources had a greater influence over the content flowing through his Twitter stream than journalists or other elite sources.

  • Serpentine Galleries and Wf Central Open the Inaugural
    SERPENTINE GALLERIES AND WF CENTRAL OPEN THE INAUGURAL SERPENTINE PAVILION BEIJING JIAKUN Architects have designed first Serpentine Pavilion co-commissioned and built outside the UK 30 May to 31 December 2018 The Serpentine Galleries (London) and WF CENTRAL (Beijing) have launched their major international collaboration: a new temporary architecture Pavilion, designed by JIAKUN Architects, at the WF CENTRAL development in Beijing. Modelled on the Serpentine’s annual Pavilion commission in London’s Royal Park of Kensington Gardens, the inaugural Serpentine Pavilion Beijing opened to the public on 30 May at WF CENTRAL on Wangfujing in Beijing’s Dongcheng District. Located just 600m away from the historic Forbidden City, this bustling area has been home to cultural and commercial activities since the middle of the Ming Dynasty. The Serpentine Pavilion Beijing is a public space for cultural activities, events and social encounters at the very heart of WF CENTRAL, with a programme of cultural activities programmed across five Pavilion Weekends over the summer. The eminent Chinese practice JIAKUN Architects, led by architect Liu Jiakun, has responded to the brief of designing a world-class temporary Pavilion that takes into consideration both the historic and social context of Beijing and the 17-year history of the Serpentine Pavilion commission. Initiated in 2000, the London scheme has showcased renowned architects from Zaha Hadid to Rem Koolhaas. With a focus on society, community and a respect for local context and vernacular craftsmanship, Liu Jiakun aims to address contemporary architectural issues with a sense of realism, an approach inspired by folk wisdom. His vision remains open to China's many traditions and his projects shed light on the reciprocal relation between Chinese public life and urban cultural space.
