Since the early weeks of the so-called Arab Spring, high hopes for democratic, social, and political change in the Middle East have been met with varying degrees of frustration. In the sub-region of the Levant, regional uprisings have turned to violent conflict in places such as Syria, Iraq, and the Gaza Strip. In Syria, popular unrest has caused enormous human suffering in one of the most brutal civil wars the region ever has witnessed, yet the international community has shown an appalling inability to act. Taking the war in Syria as its central point of reference, this book raises the question of whether the developments in the Levant might lead not only to processes of regime change, but also to a fundamental alteration of its entire state system.

The downhill slide in the global price of crude oil, which started mid-2014, had major repercussions across the Middle East for net oil exporters, as well as importers closely connected to the oil-producing countries from the Gulf. Following the Arab uprisings of 2010 and 2011, the oil price decline represented a second major shock for the region in the early twenty-first century – one that has continued to impose constraints, but also provided opportunities. Offering the first comprehensive analysis of the Middle Eastern political economy in response to the 2014 oil price decline, this book connects oil market dynamics with an understanding of socio-political changes.Inspired by rentierism, the contributors present original studies on Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. The studies reveal a large diversity of country-specific policy adjustment strategies: from the migrant workers in the Arab Gulf, who lost out in the post-2014 period but were incapable of repelling burdensome adjustment policies, to Egypt, Jordan, and Lebanon, who have never been able to fulfil the expectation that they could benefit from the 2014 oil price decline.With timely contributions on the COVID-19-induced oil price crash in 2020, this collection signifies that rentierism still prevails with regard to both empirical dynamics in the Middle East and academic discussions on its political economy.

Rigorous research yielding sculptural and installation-type interventions and deep insight into an earlier era's sound experimentsPublished with The Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum.This volume ably documents the Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum exhibition of the same name by acclaimed New York– and Vienna-based Austrian artist Martin Beck (born 1963). This work explores the methods and means through which environments are captured, compressed and represented. The suite of works is informed by Beck's research into Environments, a series of 11 vinyl records from the 1970s produced by Syntonic Research that registered the acoustics of nature and meditative sounds with high-fidelity recording technology. Beck's interest in these records lies in their pioneering role as atmospheric tools for self-optimization within an ever more competitive capitalist setting. Dissecting the series' promotional material, Beck highlights and cuts into the claims made for creating spaces of heightened productivity in which one supposedly feels at ease and is ever more functional.

Dieser Band befasst sich mit den derzeit beobachtbaren tiefgreifenden sozialen, ökonomischen und politischen Transformationen in der arabischen Welt, die jedoch auf der Ebene der politischen Systeme von Stagnation und Autoritarismus gekennzeichnet sind. Ziel der Beiträge ist es, innovative theoretische Ansätze aus den Politik- bzw. den Sozialwissenschaften mit konkreter empirischer Forschung zu außenpolitischen, wirtschaftlichen und gesellschaftspolitischen Entwicklungen in der Region zu verknüpfen. Drei Faktoren spielen dabei eine zentrale Rolle: innergesellschaftliche Transformationsprozesse, externe Einflussnahmen (insbesondere Demokratieförderung) und die Rolle von ökonomischen und politischen Renten. Das Buch erscheint als Band 1 der Reihe „Politik und Gesellschaft des Nahen Ostens“.

Tillfälligt slut
A text–image meditation on landscape and observation by two American filmmakersAmerican artists James Benning (born 1942) and Sharon Lockhart (born 1964) often cite each other’s films as an influence on their own work, investigating the structure of film itself and rethinking the use of duration and sound. Both artists’ work illustrates the importance of close observation and the evolving urban landscape.Over Time pairs works from both Benning and Lockhart with a collaborative, almost stream-of-consciousness text.The result is a profound conversation between two accomplished artists that highlights how slow reflection can deepen and enrich everyday experience.
