Political Aid and Arab Activism: Democracy Promotion, Justice, and Representatio

Description: Political Aid and Arab Activism by Sheila Carapico Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Details the effects of political aid in the Middle East by analyzing discursive and professional practices in four key subfields. Publisher Description What does it mean to promote transitions to democracy in the Middle East? How have North American, European and multilateral projects advanced human rights, authoritarian retrenchment or Western domination? This book examines transnational programs in Egypt, Jordan, Morocco, Yemen, Lebanon, Tunisia, Algeria, the exceptional cases of Palestine and Iraq, and the Arab region at large during two tumultuous decades. To understand the controversial and contradictory effects of political aid, Sheila Carapico analyzes discursive and professional practices in four key subfields: the rule of law, electoral design and monitoring, womens political empowerment and civil society. From the institutional arrangements for extraordinary undertakings such as Saddam Husseins trial or Palestinian elections to routine templates for national womens machineries or NGO networks, her research explores the paradoxes and jurisdictional disputes confronted by Arab activists for justice, representation and non-governmental agency. Author Biography Sheila Carapico is Professor of Political Science and International Studies at the University of Richmond and Visiting Professor of Political Science at the American University in Cairo. The author of Civil Society in Yemen: The Political Economy of Activism in Modern Arabia (Cambridge University Press, 1998), she has also researched and written about Yemeni, Egyptian and Arab political activism; American foreign policy in the Middle East; and the politics of international political aid.
