Resumen
Descripción
Citizens are challenging authorities
across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), in countries
with diverse socioeconomic and institutional settings. From
wealthy Bahrain to impoverished Yemen, from Tunisia with its
sophisticated state institutions, to Egypt with its five
thousand years of culture and civilization, the unifying
refrain has been 'dignity, respect and freedom'
and an end to the Arab exceptionalism which has denied
rights enjoyed elsewhere. The Arab spring in the spirit of a
popular awakening has arrived. This brief proposes a
framework for support to MENA based on the four building
blocks, which are closely interconnected. Support to the
region could address the four development priorities under
the overall approach that policy is as important as money.
