| Summary/Abstract |
This article examines scholarship from the Arab world on Turkish foreign policy since the early 1980s to show shifts in Arab perceptions of Turkey. Prior to 2002, Arab scholars were focused on the competition between Turkey's secular and religious elites, with largely negative views of the country's policies in the Middle East. With the rise of the Justice and Development Party (AKP), Arab scholars began to look more positively toward Turkey, as it sought to play a new role in the Middle East. With the Arab uprisings from 2011 onward, the Arab literature on Turkey began to vary, reflecting the developments in Turkey's relationships with scholars' respective countries.

| Summary/Abstract |
This study examines the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood’s transnational media advocacy as a shift in the Islamists’ political participation in general and the Brothers’ in particular. The article argues that the Brothers created their own TV channels in order to challenge the new regime’s legitimacy after 3 July 2013 by taking advantage of a sympathetic political environment in Turkey. Their media advocacy embraced a collective Islamic identity in its denunciation of the Sisi regime and called for a democratic restitution as a common Egyptian cause. Based on interviews conducted with TV presenters and a content analysis of the expatriates’ TV channels, this study presents transnational advocacy as a novelty in the Islamists’ repertoire of action.

| Summary/Abstract |
Why did al-Nur Salafi party change its stance towards civil state? This study problematizes al-Nur party’s discourse on civil state after 25 January and 3 July in emphasis of its ideological shift in different political contexts. Based on the political parties’ competition strategies, this study argues that changes in al-Nur party’s discourse towards civil state are due to its adoption of different competition strategies vis-à-vis the Muslim Brothers after 25 January and 3 July. Unlike the literature addressing the Islamists’ ideological revisions, this paper argues that al-Nur party adopted the issue ownership strategy in order to highlight its ideological specificity vis-à-vis the Brothers’ Freedom and Justice Party after 25 January. After 3 July, the party shifted to the wave-riding strategy in compliance with public anti-Islamic feelings in order to take over the political vacuum left after the ban of and the crackdown on the Brothers. By relying on the Critical Discourse Analysis methodology, this study examines the shift in al-Nur party’s stance towards civil state in the party’s official statements and websites during elections and constitutional referendums after 25 January and 3 July.
