Civil society in the Middle East
Abstract
Launched in 1992, the Civil Society in the Middle East programme brought together numerous scholars to analyze political life through an exploration of civil society within the states of the region. It gathered material on non-governmental organizations (NGOs), unions, political parties and professional syndicates. This text, the second of two volumes, provides a comprehensive analysis of state-society relations in the Middle East. It contains original studies of Algeria, Gaza, Iran, Israel, Turkey, the Sudan, Yemen and the Arab states of the Gulf. Collectively, these contributions are intended to challenge the notion that civil society is alien to the Middle East.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
