Experts to discuss future of Arab reform movements Sept. 6
Three analysts of Middle East politics will share their insights on Friday, Sept. 6, when Wayne State University Law School offers a panel discussion on “The Future of Reform Movements in the Arab World.”
The free, public event will take place from 6 to 7:30 p.m. in the Law School’s Spencer M. Partrich Auditorium, 471 W. Palmer St. A reception will follow.
Professor of Law Gregory Fox, director of the Program for International Legal Studies, said he’s delighted to host experts Professor Haider Hamoudi of the University of Pittsburgh Law School, Professor Tarek Masoud of the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University and Professor Mark Tessler of the Department of Political Science at the University of Michigan to serve on the panel. The analysts will discuss the precarious state of Arab political reform movements, often referred to as the “Arab Spring.”
“Political, legal and social reform in the Arab world has reached a critical moment,” Fox said. “There seem to be good reasons to agree with both optimists and pessimists about the future of progressive change. We know the questions the panel will address are of great concern to the Wayne community and to many outside the university in southeast Michigan.”
