Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: September 1995 The countries of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) have lost the geographic advantage they used to have because of their proximity to the European Union at a time when Eastern Europe was effectively closed to open exchange with the West. The Central and Eastern European countries are beginning to exploit their own proximity, together with relatively low wages and significant stocks of human capital, and are formidable competitors with MENA. To compete, the MENA countries must implement more far-reaching liberalization, privatization, and deregulation. It has been a basic tenet in MENA countries that economic reform must be gradual to avoid causing social disruption. This has often meant little effort publicizing reform and mobilizing political support. Partial and slow reform has led to uncertainty in firms and households and a lack of credibility. The slower the pace of reform and the less comprehensive its scope, the greater the gap between MENA's performance and the rest of the world is likely to become. Without a significant private sector supply response and inward foreign direct investment, political support for reform will be limited, and a vicious circle may result. The creation of the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the offer of the European Union to establish a Euro-Mediterranean Economic Area provide possible institutional frameworks to make a gradual reform strategy more credible. Full participation in the WTO could move the trade regime closer to quot;good practices,quot; improve trade institutions, help lock in trade reform, make trade policy implementation more transparent, diminish bureaucratic red tape, and force firms to go through GATT-sanctioned mechanisms for temporary safeguard protection. An agreement with the European Union to establish a free trade and investment area could offset some of the WTO's regulatory and administrative loopholes, could (by providing financial transfers) overcome resistance to reform, and could ensure investors that MENA governments are committed to far-reaching integration with the European Union. But neither option is a panacea. Both should be pursued simultaneously.

Book Synopsis Europe and the Arab World by : Samir Amin
Download or read book Europe and the Arab World written by Samir Amin and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2008-02-29 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Europe and the Arab World is a wide-ranging assessment of the prospects for a new relationship between Europe and the Arab world in the coming years. Samir Amin and Ali El Kenz take as their starting point the significantly shifting balance of political forces within the various Arab countries, including the rise of both political Islam and civil society. They argue that the strategic global hegemony of the United States constitutes a major element affecting the Euro-Arab relationship. They then focus on the European Union initiative, originally launched in Barcelona, to put its relations with the Arab countries of the Mediterranean and Gulf regions on a new footing of equality and mutually beneficial cooperation. The authors provide a detailed empirical account of the initiative as well as an historically contextualized, intellectually critical and politically perceptive analysis of the various realities impacting on it. Samir Amin and Ali El Kenz conclude that, while considerable dialogue and even institution-building have taken place in order to give substance to this attempt to go beyond the colonial legacy of inequality and dependence, little of a concrete kind has been achieved in transforming the underlying economic and political relationships between the Arab Islamic and European Christian worlds of the Mediterranean. Among the many obstacles identified are the overriding and economically deleterious impact of globalized capitalism, and the determination of the United States to impose its own political objectives on the Middle East. The timeliness of this book's argument is highlighted by the new tensions that have accompanied the U.S. military occupation of Iraq and the Bush administration's political pretensions to 'bring democracy' to the whole region.
Book Synopsis Bound to Cooperate - Europe and the Middle East by : Sven Behrendt
Download or read book Bound to Cooperate - Europe and the Middle East written by Sven Behrendt and published by Verlag Bertelsmann Stiftung. This book was released on 2010-07-30 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regional integration and the organisation of cross-regional relations have been some of the most prominent features of international relations. By further strengthening the institutions of the European Union, Europe is taking steps to become a capable international actor. Only in few world regions, such as the Middle East, integration has not been a driving force moving political and economic relations. Given these structural imbalances between Europe and the Middle East, but also geographical proximity, economic interdependencies, and shared historical experiences, what interests does Europe pursue in the Middle East? And, if the goal of European policies is to establish stable political, economic and social relations with its neighbouring region, how could inter-regional relations best be organised?

This report, strongly influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic, paints a bleak picture of the future and describes a contested, fragmented and turbulent world. It specifically discusses the four main trends that will shape tomorrow's world: - Demographics-by 2040, 1.4 billion people will be added mostly in Africa and South Asia. - Economics-increased government debt and concentrated economic power will escalate problems for the poor and middleclass. - Climate-a hotter world will increase water, food, and health insecurity. - Technology-the emergence of new technologies could both solve and cause problems for human life. Students of trends, policymakers, entrepreneurs, academics, journalists and anyone eager for a glimpse into the next decades, will find this report, with colored graphs, essential reading.
