\r\n\r\nCentre for Middle East Policy Analysis (KE.A.ME.P)\u00a0 <\/strong>\r\n\r\nThe Middle East has always been and continues to be a region of high political, strategic and economic importance. Its significance also lies in the fact that it interacts in several ways with two other subsystems of note, the first being North Africa and the second the Arab-Persian Gulf region.\r\n\r\nMoreover, the Middle East is an extremely complex region, where all contemporary security threats and challenges are present, while regional conflicts, intra- and extra-systemic actors, Islamist terrorism, ideological and political rivalries as well as the conflicting interests of state and non-state actors have led to all kinds of dynamic situations. At the same time, relations of cooperation but also of rivalry have developed, often exacerbated by religious differences. All in all, this state of affairs has led to several long-standing political confrontations and conflicts.\r\n\r\nThe Middle East is very close to Greece and, therefore, the developments and upheavals taking place in the region cannot but affect it. However, from a scientific point of view, there is no corresponding interest in Greece among Greek scholars and researchers. Furthermore, the analysis concerning the Middle East and the subsystems of North Africa and the Gulf neither corresponds, at least quantitatively, to the rapid changes that have taken place after the Arab uprisings of 2011 nor to the multiple and interrelated problems that presently afflict the region.\r\n\r\nThe Center for Middle East Policy Analysis, which operates within the Institute of International Economic Relations, aims, on the one hand, at contributing to enriching investigations on the Middle East, North Africa and Gulf affairs and developments and, on the other hand, at becoming a useful tool for understanding, analyzing and explaining what is happening and why.\r\n\r\nTo achieve these goals, the Centre for Middle East Policy Analysis (KE.A.ME.P.) will carry out research and studies, will organize seminars, conferences and workshops, will post articles and blogs on the Middle East, North Africa and the Gulf, and will also offer insightful analyses of current issues.
