C’è confusione nel campo palestinese alla vigilia della presentazione all’Assemblea generale dell’Onu della richiesta di riconoscere un loro stato. A Gaza, Hamas rifiuta di appoggiarla non riconoscendo la legittimità del presidente Mahmud Abbas; a Ramallah in Cisgiordania l’Olp vorrebbe presentare una sua domanda; Washington conferma l’intenzione di imporre il veto qualora, dopo l’approvazione dell’Assemblea generale di uno stato palestinese, questi chiedesse al Consiglio di sicurezza (solo autorizzato a farlo) di accettarlo come stato membro dell’Onu.

Beyond the immediate crises, centring on the inability of countries such as Greece, Ireland and Portugal to finance their public debt without EU/IMF support, at the heart of the Euro crisis lies the increasing divergence in economic performance between the core and the periphery, aggravated by current austerity programmes, especially in those countries with long-standing structural reform deficits. For example, the Commission’s Spring Forecast shows that the worst growth performance forecast in 2011 and 2012 is for Greece and Portugal(1).

Why the title: Iran at the Crossroad? Because the Iranian establishment has to decide between the current form of government and a more democratic one. How can we define the current form of government? A theocracy? No, we can’t. Because it is not upon the word of God – in this case the Koran and the Shia tradition – that rules are made.

Il 2010 è stato un anno sorprendente per la Turchia. Se da una parte, infatti, il processo di avvicinamento all’Ue presenta sempre più difficoltà, dall’altra il Paese è riuscito a ottenere una stabilizzazione politica e una crescita economica senza precedenti. La Turchia, non a caso soprannominata la Cina europea, nel 2010 si è, invero, affermata come l’economia più dinamica in Europa e, in assoluto, come quinta economia emergente in termini dimensionali con una crescita, rispetto ai Brics inferiore solo a quella cinese.

40% of Russian GDP is realized within so-called monogorod i.e. single-industry towns whose economic and social life revolves around the success of a single industrial complex.
But this model is showing signs of weakness. Around 20 of these towns have managed to overcome the 2008-2010 crisis only because of strong state intervention.
The first social disorders have occurred in some towns and others could follow soon. However, in spite of these troubles it is hard to conjecture the end of the monogorod.

Despite the apparent uniformity of the Somali nation, after the death of Siad Barre Somalia en-tered a process of fragmentation that continues to date.
The solutions that the so-called international community has supported and at times has di-rectly promoted do not take into account that there is no unitary solution to the dissolution of the Somali state and that de facto institutions are controlling and governing parts of former Somalia, such as Puntland and Somaliland.

The Egyptian revolution, which sparked on January 25, was widely considered successful when it actually succeeded after 18 days in forcing old Mubarak to step down. Now after six months of this unexpected achievement renewed frustration dominates the domestic scene in the country, posing serious questions on whether the revolution has succeeded or is about to be aborted.

The analysis examines the current context of the Kashmir conflict by comparing the states’ perspectives that have emerged from the India-Pakistan dialogue process initiated in 2004. This process has facilitated the adoption of some initiatives (which were unthinkable decades ago) regarding the exchange of people and goods across the Line of Control (the line that divides both sides of Kashmir).
