The Nature, Characteristics & Influence of the Drastic Changes in the Middle East

Abstract: The continuously evolving political turbulences and upheavals of the Arab countries can be regarded as an endogenous Arab democratic movement. In this evolving process, “the Islamic Elements" once again become an important source of spiritual and ideological resources for its social transformation. Now as the situation becomes more and more obvious that various factions of Islamic forces are accelerating their proceedings of “realignment" and “differentiation", an extremely intrigue complex of interconnections is emerging between different Islamic factions and between religious politics and geopolitics. This situational evolution is not only influencing the Middle East region, but also affecting the peace and development of the whole world.
