Competing visions of the state : political and security trends in the Arab world and the Middle East : highlights from the conference, 19-20 January 2012, Ottawa / conference rapporteur: Thomas Juneau.: PS73-1/2012-09-02E-PDF
On 19-20 January 2012, in collaboration with the International Development Research Centre (IDRC), the Academic Outreach Program of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) hosted a two-day conference on the Middle East. The event, conducted under the Chatham House rule, had three objectives: to improve the participants’ understanding of the region’s domestic and foreign challenges, to explore its future prospects and to discuss related implications for Canada. The conference welcomed a diverse range of participants and invited leading experts from Canada, Europe, the Middle East and the United States. It addressed a selection of key themes and set a background for a continuing dialogue on salient ones. This report summarizes the main ideas presented by experts and discussed amongst participants during the course of the event. It should also be noted that the views, ideas and concepts in this report do not reflect official positions of CSIS and are offered as a means of supporting an ongoing discussion of the political turmoil that has changed the Middle East since the beginning of 2011.
