SPOILS OF CIVIL WAR – BRINGING THE ARAB WORLD BACK IN?

“After Conflict? Spoils of war and the emergent international disorder in the Arab World” is the title of an international expert meeting convened by the Striking from the Margins research project of the Central European University with the support of the Carnegie Corporation New York.
The meeting opens with a public keynote panel at Bruno Kreisky Forum, joining two eminent intellectuals and actors in the international arena – Tarek Mitri and Ghassan Salamé – to discuss current challenges in the Arab world. Before them are issues of political disarticulation, state capture, civil wars and proxy wars in the region, and their international extensions, including the erosion of international norms and frameworks, in what is emerging as global disorder and the conditions of a new cold war with variable geographies.
