- W314695675 abstract "AbstractThis paper aims to keep readers informed by addressing common views which are widespread not only among academics and politicians, but also amongst the masses which have started to question and lose confidence in the current climate of revolution. The paper will enunciate the term the Arab Spring as a phenomenon, examining its contours though practical and theoretically accepted 'norms'. Actual forces, whether internal or external, will be contextualized within a theoretical framework in order to introduce an innovative analysis of the current conditions in the region, in an effort to draw some relevant conclusions and provide a working prognosis of the future course of events.IntroductionArabs for years have been divided, dealing with a seemingly endless succession of blows. Nationalism has remarkably transcended boundaries and borders have become a major source of conflicts. Suddenly, an atmosphere of revolution has come to light in this region, which has been described for long time as idle and immune towards transformations, catching everyone off-guard, toppling regimes and shaking the thrones of others; sweeping away the status quo and re-gathering all those concerned under one new name: The Spring. This event has made it clear that the borders separating political units are no longer solid.For almost three years now, the world has been the scene of an epic paroxysm; the greatest wave of empowerment the world has witnessed for many years.1 Feverish analyses began to mount in an attempt to examine this event: The Spring. Some chose to factor in this context a new foreign conspiracy, aiming at dividing of what is left in the region. Others suggest that the revolution is a long awaited insurrection of dignity, evinced when people have decided to shake the dust of obedience and thus a phenomenon (the Spring) came to pass that was ignited by plain domestic forces. Nevertheless, amidst observers' bewilderment over a fresh set of events, which misrepresented a newly anticipated course of democracy and transformation in the region, new prospects for scholars to address novel hypotheses and theories have come to light. Events have unfolded which pinpoint five evident cases of the Spring; Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Yemen and Syria. Demonstrations in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia have been colored in a sectarian hue and other demonstrations in Algeria, Oman, Jordan, Palestine, Iraq, Sudan, Kuwait and Morocco have not exceeded previous 'regular' protests, similar to many that had occurred in the before the eruption of the current spate of revolts.In order to conjure up what has happened in that region, delimiting the scope of our research into well-defined geographical boundaries and well-known geopolitical contours is deemed crucial, especially when adding a brief historical background. In addition, throughout the course of our analysis, the term the Arab Spring will be articulated through comparing aspects dovetailing this term into a widely known theoretical framework of revolution. Furthermore, factors (both domestic and foreign) that have inspired, affected and diverted the course of revolution will feature within the course of this paper. Finally, an evaluation and a conclusion of the current status of revolts will be presented in order to give a quasi-accurate prognosis for the future course of events.The vs. the EastTo start, in today's article would apply the term the Arab World rather than the widespread term the Middle The main reason behind this is to limit the scope of our analysis to specific geopolitical boundaries, due to the continuous disagreements on the exact definition of the East. This fact was clearly referred to by many scholars, like Bernard Lewis who points out the importance of redefining the term the East adding, we have been always a little vague about the geographical meaning of this expression, which was invented in the west in the early years of this century. …" @default.
