| Summary |
One year after the uprisings known as the "Arab spring" erupted, this collection of fifteen articles explores what is evident thus far as to the regional and international ramifications of the upheavals, with special reference to the potential ramifications for Israeli national security. Among the questions addressed: why did the upheavals occur now, and what do they portend for the future? How have the major powers and certain Arab states, ostensibly spared the turmoil, responded to the events? Where do Iran and Turkey figure in the picture? What are the implications for other global issues, such as terrorism and WMD? How do these events affect Israel, and how might Israel best respond to the events? These and other themes are explored here to create an interim assessment of the pivotal events in the Arab world |
