The Portuguese Empire emerged as a means of asserting national will and occupied an important place in the minds of the people. Longing for the gardens of a mythological Eden suppressed their ability to tackle problems bravely and wittingly, or to make use of new opportunities.

Islam and Global Commons: The Gap between Principles and Practices

It is estimated that there are approximately 1.6 billion Muslims in the world today, who represent over 20% of the world’s population. No one is exempt from the vagaries of climate change, and Muslims have to accept their share of the responsibility.

Spanish Lessons for Moscow

Spain’s democratic success poses no miracle prescriptions for Russia and other struggling democracies. But it suggests a point often overlooked in discussions about democratization. Democracy is the product of the skills and talents of real-life political actors rather than the result of some macro-historical process linked to the development of the economy, or the constitutional configuration of civil society and political organizations.

Franco-Russian Great Power Rivalry in the Sahara-Sahel Region

The Franco-Russian great power rivalry has a direct impact on the region, creating a powerful security dynamic. This rivalry is a direct consequence of Russia’s efforts to capitalize on French weaknesses, which, in turn, makes Moscow the primary threat to French foreign policy in the region. The main examples of this development are Libya and Mali.

When Dreams “Come True”

The culture of tolerance and respect for the rights of minorities is much more important than a democratic form of government and the related procedures, such as free multiparty elections. However, such a liberal political culture is absent from the Arab-Muslim world – and the introduction of a new, formally democratic form of government will not lead to the triumph of liberal values.

Russia and Israel: A Romance Aborted?

Israel regards Russia’s cooperation with Syria and Iran as an indicator of the Kremlin’s willingness to regain the previously lost status of a great power in the Middle East. It hopes to achieve this, Israel believes, by replaying a system of relationships that existed before Gorbachev’s perestroika.

After the Road Map

Russia’s growing importance in world politics and economy helps it assume a more independent role in international policies in the Middle East. Russia could offer a new diplomatic initiative for scaling down tensions in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. This may occur if it bases its incentive on the principle of ‘demographic disengagement’ of the Israelis and Palestinian Arabs.
