The Last Ring of the Lost Century in the Middle East: Determinants Role of Institutions in Arap Uprising Process
Abstract
The Middle East is a geography that has been exposed
to intervention in every sense from the collapse of the empires to the process of sharing after the
First World War. In the following period, it seems to be an unstable region that did not provide
unity and integrity due to artificial borders, mosaic societies
and repressive governments. The "Arab Uprising"
that constitute the last ring of this process are expressed around variables
such as socio-economic reasons, participation and legitimacy problems in
administration, manipulation of multiple identities in the administration,
limitation of freedoms, and read over on results such as revolution, civil war
or management changes. This study is based on the hypothesis that governance
gap in the Middle East indicates the evolution of the Arab Uprising process.
As a result of comparative and dynamic analysis of
institutional indicators based on quantitative data, it is understood that the
Arab Uprising process is not surprising in terms of internal and external
actors, but does not provide suitable conditions for institutional change.
