This book examines the connection between affects, mobilization,
and political transformation. Offering unique insights into the
affective and emotional dynamics of occupied Tahrir and Taksim
Squares, this book builds a novel understanding of urban mass
protests and their capacity to “travel” across time and space.
Its Midān Moment concept breaks new ground in affect and emotion
studies with a focus on political transformation in Egypt and
Turkey. It is based on empirically grounded research which covers
the 2011 and 2013 uprisings and their authoritarian aftermath. This
book will appeal to scholars and students interested in affect and
emotion studies in a range of disciplinary areas, including
political science, sociology, anthropology, area studies, cultural
studies, gender studies, and postcolonial studies.
Regional cooperation, regionalism and regionalization in the Middle
East are usually considered to be weak and rather ceremonial.
However, since September 11, 2001, a new regional order is emerging
and the impact of geostrategic changes in the international
environment have yet to be satisfactorily studied. With older
regional organizations suffering from weaknesses, new forms appear
to be developing and flourishing, whether because of European
support or due to growing sub-regional identities. This volume
offers refined theoretical models and approaches which are attuned
to the new dynamics and contradictions of a wide range of
regionalist projects in the contemporary Middle East. Case studies
of the most important regional organizations in different policy
fields offer comprehensive overviews of the main actors,
institutions, historical development and current issues.
In times of increasing mediatization and digitalization media play
an important role in political and societal transformation
processes. The authors of this volume take an actor-centered
perspective to shed light on current cases in Arab and Asian
countries. They inquire into the ways processes of networking and
mobilization evolve in the context of restricted media systems and
state-dominated public spheres. It features original research about
various social and political actors such as women's rights
activists, public intellectuals, anarchists and Islamists.
Dieser Band befasst sich mit den derzeit beobachtbaren
tiefgreifenden sozialen, okonomischen und politischen
Transformationen in der arabischen Welt, die jedoch auf der Ebene
der politischen Systeme von Stagnation und Autoritarismus
gekennzeichnet sind. Ziel der Beitrage ist es, innovative
theoretische Ansatze aus den Politik- bzw. den Sozialwissenschaften
mit konkreter empirischer Forschung zu aussenpolitischen,
wirtschaftlichen und gesellschaftspolitischen Entwicklungen in der
Region zu verknupfen. Drei Faktoren spielen dabei eine zentrale
Rolle: innergesellschaftliche Transformationsprozesse, externe
Einflussnahmen (insbesondere Demokratieforderung) und die Rolle von
okonomischen und politischen Renten. Das Buch erscheint als Band 1
der Reihe Politik und Gesellschaft des Nahen Ostens.""
Das Buch bietet aus geschlechtskategoriale Perspektive einen

Krieg und Frieden sowie Perspektiven der Krisenbewaltigung unter
Einbezug der Geschlechterperspektive stehen im Zentrum des Buches."
