| Summary/Abstract |
Democracy in the Middle East
has been in the spotlight of the
world media for a number of
years now. Along with the evergrowing
international debate on the importance
of democratizing political systems
around the globe, questions such as how
seriously the Arab countries take the calls
to adopt real democratic practices and how
far they have gone in implementing political
reforms continue to arise. While some
signs of change have apparently emerged,
these questions remain diffi cult to answer,
even for practitioners in the fi eld.
