  • Islam As Statecraft: How Governments Use Religion in Foreign Policy
    THE NEW GEOPOLITICS NOVEMBER 2018 MIDDLE EAST ISLAM AS STATECRAFT: HOW GOVERNMENTS USE RELIGION IN FOREIGN POLICY PETER MANDAVILLE SHADI HAMID ISLAM AS STATECRAFT: HOW GOVERNMENTS USE RELIGION IN FOREIGN POLICY PETER MANDAVILLE AND SHADI HAMID EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The discussion of Islam in world politics in recent years has tended to focus on how religion inspires or is used by a wide range of social movements, political parties, and militant groups. Less attention has been paid, however, to the question of how governments—particularly those in the Middle East—have incorporated Islam into their broader foreign policy conduct. Whether it is state support for transnational religious propagation, the promotion of religious interpretations that ensure regime survival, or competing visions of global religious leadership; these all embody what we term in this new report the “geopolitics of religious soft power.” The paper explores the religious dimensions of the Saudi-Iranian rivalry, looking at how the Islamic outreach strategies of the two governments have evolved in response to changing regional and global environments. We assess the much-discussed phenomenon of Saudi Arabia’s export of Wahhabism, arguing that the nature and effects of Saudi religious influence around the world are more complicated than we ordinarily think. Meanwhile, since 9/11 and the rise of ISIS, the governments of several prominent Muslim-majority countries, among them Jordan, Morocco, and Egypt, have positioned themselves as the purveyors of a “moderate Islam” capable of blunting the narrative of extremist groups. We also look at Turkey and Indonesia as examples of emerging powers that, with somewhat less fanfare, have integrated elements of religious outreach into their broader soft power strategies across Asia and Africa.

  • Threat Inºation and the Failure of the Marketplace of Ideas
    Threat Inºation and the Marketplace of Ideas Threat Inºation and Chaim Kaufmann the Failure of the Marketplace of Ideas The Selling of the Iraq War Mature democracies such as the United States are generally believed to be better at making foreign policy than other regime types. Especially, the strong civic institutions and ro- bust marketplaces of ideas in mature democracies are thought to substantially protect them from severe threat inºation and “myths of empire” that could promote excessively risky foreign policy adventures and wars. The market- place of ideas helps to weed out unfounded, mendacious, or self-serving for- eign policy arguments because their proponents cannot avoid wide-ranging debate in which their reasoning and evidence are subject to public scrutiny.1 The marketplace of ideas, however, failed to fulªll this function in the 2002–03 U.S. foreign policy debate over going to war with Iraq. By now there is broad agreement among U.S. foreign policy experts, as well as much of the American public and the international community, that the threat assessments that President George W. Bush and his administration used to justify the war against Iraq were greatly exaggerated, and on some dimensions wholly baseless. Postwar revelations have made clear that President Bush and top ofªcials of his administration were determined from early 2001 to bring about regime change in Iraq.2 It was not until the summer of 2002, however, that they began Chaim Kaufmann is Associate Professor of International Relations at Lehigh University.

  • 2005 Annual Report
    Middle East Institute 2005 Annual Report The Middle East Institute (MEI) was founded in 1946 by Christian Herter, who would soon be named US Secretary of State, and George Camp Keiser, a Middle East scholar. The Institute was initially an adjunct of Johns Hop- kins University-School for Advanced International Studies but was then spun off as an independent non-profit organization. There were no organi- zations in the Washington area at that time that focused on the contempo- rary Middle East. MEI was designed to fill the void. The Institute’s charter promised: “…to increase knowledge of the Middle East among citizens of the United States and to promote a better understanding between the peoples of these two areas.” This remains the Institute’s objective. Traditionally, MEI has not taken positions on issues and does not identify with a particular political party or with a specific side on the many disputes that have wracked the region. The Institute continues that policy today. In- stead, MEI offers a forum for debate, opinion, and analysis through a va- riety of educational and informational programs, including briefings and seminars, media outreach, a scholars program, a quarterly peer-reviewed scholarly journal, a language program, a library, and various conferences. The Institute is supported by individual and corporate members, by in- dividual donors, and by foundations. MEI is a membership organization, but many of its programs are open to the public. Both policy papers and informational resources are available on its website. 1 Letter from the President One year shy of our 60th anniversary, it is a time to reflect on the past and think of the future.

  • 35 Articles of Impeachment.” — Vincent Bugliosi, Former District Attorney, Author of the Prosecution of George W
    More than two centuries ago, the Founders of this country set forth a pro- cedure for Congress to follow in the event of grave abuse of power by the Chief Executive. That process is impeachment. In the face of the monumental deceit and disregard for the Constitution that we have witnessed on the part of the President over the past seven years, Congressman Kucinich’s initiation of this process is neither fanciful nor futile, neither vengeful nor vindictive; it is the sober fulfillment of his sworn duty as a Congressman to follow the law without regard to personal consequence and misguided political stratagem. It is, quite simply, an act of patriotism. —Elizabeth de la Vega, Former Federal Prosecutor and author of United States v. George W. Bush et. al. H This collection of impeachable offenses should be viewed as a sampling of the crimes and abuses of President George W. Bush and his subordinates. Bush has had many accomplices — first and foremost Vice President Cheney. But our Founders created a single executive precisely so that we could hold that one per- son accountable for the actions of the executive branch. It is high time we did so, and millions of Americans will be urging their representatives to support the effort being led by Congressman Kucinich. These articles establish, and hearings would establish further, that President Bush was ‘the decider’ behind countless abuses of power. And, of course, his public comments have time and again advertised his indifference to the laws he is violating. Not only does overwhelming evidence show us that Bush knew his claims about WMDs to be false, but the president has shown us that he consid- ers the question of truth or falsehood to be laughably irrelevant.
