  • Authoritarianism in Egypt, Algeria and Syria; political changes in Iran; the politics of oil in Saudi Arabia and the Gulf States; Israel, the Palestinians and the Arab States
  • Intervention in Afghanistan and Iraq
  • The recent uprisings in the Arab World, human rights, social movements and social media
