| Summary / Abstract (Note) | As part of the Middle East Institute's commitment to promoting and advancing Middle East studies for the next generation, MEI in late 2003 announced the Mrs. Harley Stevens Award for the best essay on a selected theme by a graduate student at an American university. The award was named for Mrs. Harley C. Stevens, a longtime benefactor of MEI and the Middle East Journal, who died last year. The theme chosen for the first competition was democratization in the Middle East, with the essayists encouraged to write on a single case study. Under the terms of the competition, the editor of the Journal chose three judges: Amy Hawthorne of the Carnegie Endowment, Nathan Brown of George Washington University, and Stephen Buck, former US Foreign Service Officer, also formerly with National Defense University. The judges selected this article by Robert Parks (University of Texas), who received his award at the MEI Annual Conference last fall. |
