Natalia Martín. ARI 133/2020 - 25/11/2020.

This paper analyses the increasing adoption of scenario analysis techniques in policy circles, putting a special emphasis on the advantages of using forecasting on areas like Europe’s southern neighbourhood, where the transnational nature of geopolitical and socio-economic challenges would greatly benefit from such an approach.

Nina Wilén. ARI 132/2020 - 24/11/2020.

The current instability in the Sahel has attracted a heavy international security presence to the region which has taken on a logic of its own. Yet there is a need to reflect on how the international presence and local power dynamics mutually shape each other to gain a more comprehensive understanding of why current efforts to stabilise the situation have fallen short.

Rim Berahab. ARI 103/2020 - 8/9/2020.

The global energy landscape is undergoing a profound transformation. Failing to recognise its megatrends would be detrimental to the upstream development of energy strategies and to the overall energy security of NATO’s southern neighbours, particularly in the MENA region.

Europe’s neighbourhood in the Middle East and North Africa is set to become even more instable. Are Europeans capable of securing their own southern flank?

Joost Hiltermann & Maria Rodríguez Schaap. ARI 68/2019 - 12/6/2019.

Failing to acknowledge the 2011 Arab uprisings as a breaking point announcing the need for a regime overhaul in the region, and therefore a long overdue revision of Western policy, would be a mistake with serious adverse consequences.
