“الجهل بالقانون لا يُنهض عُذراً لأحد” يشير هذا المبدأ الجوهري في الممارسة المواطنية إلى ضرورة توعية المواطنين على قوانينهم وأهميتها وسبل التمتع بما توفره من حماية لهم ولحقوقهم. والمعرفة بالقانون تستدعي أيضا معرفة بالنظام المخوّل بتطبيقه وتنفيذه. التوعية القانونية عملية معقدة وواسعة وتتطلب تفاعل العديد من المؤسسات الوطنية كالمدرسة والجامعة ووسائل الإعلام ومنظمات المجتمع المدني… ولا نكشف سرّاً إذ نقول إن هذه التوعية لا تمارَس إلا بحدّها الأدنى في بلادنا، في حين يُمارس التعسف في تطبيق القانون، بل ويُنتهك القانون طولاً وعرضاً، بدون ضابط أو قيد. يحاول هذا الكتاب أن يساهم في عملية التوعية هذه،...

Employment and Entitlement in the GCC: A World-Systems Analysis of Disrupted Development by Michael Coulom
Much has been written about the ingenuity of the states of the Gulf Cooperation Council, from their physical and economic growth since the 1970s, to their political weathering of the Arab Uprisings that began in 2011, and to their ever-increasing political power in the Arab World. Conversely, human rights groups have criticized the GCC for human rights abuses, particularly in regard to migrant workers and enforcing international labor laws. Development in the...

India’s Iran Policy: Between US Primacy and Regionalism
India shifted to the side of US primacy in 2004, but since then its foreign policy has shifted once more to the middle. Sitting with a senior Indian diplomat, I mentioned that India seemed to be caught between two stools, US primacy and regionalism. “That’s an apt image,” he said, “except we have not fallen between the stools.” Things are more fraught now, and less clear. Talk of the peace pipeline and of linkages with Iran returned to the agenda after 2004. As US power enters a period of decline as a result...

The Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL): International Justice Dissected by Omar Nashabe
The Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) was created by the UN Security Council in 2007 to prosecute those responsible for the assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri and others in 2005. It has been controversial since its inception, with supporters claiming its very creation would ensure impunity. This paper offers a critique of the history, structure and procedures of the international criminal investigation and the establishment of the STL. Its central...
