The Alawites in Syrian Society: Loud Silence in a Declaration of Identity Reform
April 11, 2016 The “Declaration” presumably issued by Alawite notables and broadly covered by international media is a historic statement, irrespective of its political implications.

Security Coordination: Between the Desire to End it and the Need to Continue It
April 8, 2016 Future relations between the Palestinians and the Israelis will likely be hamstrung by issues of the past.

The Economic Dimension of Peace in Turkey
March 31, 2016 President Erdogan’s approach to securing the loyalties of Turkey’s Kurdish populace has taken many forms: granting Kurds stronger civil rights, extending the olive branch to the Kurdistan Worker’s Party (PKK) insurgency, and permitting the first pro-Kurdish party to gain Parliament seats in a country where political organizations
