100 Speeches to Live By

Why African Autocracies Promote Women as Leaders explains how and why authoritarian countries promote women as leaders in Africa. The face of African politics has changed significantly since the mid-1990s as more women have entered politics in both democracies and autocracies. Women's movements and organizations have successfully lobbied for and won more leadership roles for women in the executive, legislature, and sub-national bodies.

Looking at Women, Looking at War

Africa's Global Engagement: Perspectives from Emerging Countries

This volume brings together a number of scholars globally - from Africa and Asia to the Americas and Europe - to examine Africa’s global engagements. It approaches its subject matter theoretically and conceptually as well as empirically asking deeper questions like what is the ideal unit for cooperation and engagement? Is it the state or can one go beyond the state or possibly below the African state and internationalize given the context of the failed African state? Whilst focused very much on the contemporary nature and forms of engagement, the volume recognizes the enduring historical, and especially colonial, legacy on the contemporary African state and how it continues to shape patterns of regional and international cooperation. The book covers its subject matter in two thematic manners. First, it covers the “who” of engagement – Africa-European Relations, Africa-India relations, Africa’s relations with China and Africa’s relations with the Global South. Second, the volume explores the “what” of cooperation. This includes: agriculture and climate change, the digital revolution, energy resources, security considerations and trade. Whilst theoretically anchored, the volume seeks to also examine the implications of the empirical study for policy makers.

Africa’s External Engagement

In an era where energy security and critical minerals drive global power dynamics, the Persian Gulf is no longer just an oil hub—it is the new battleground for strategic influence. Triad of Influence analyses the geo-economic engagement of the USA, China, and India in the region, evaluating how their foreign policy patterns shape their competition for resources and power.The book classifies the geo-economic typologies of these three nations based on their power status quo and policy approaches:<ul><li>The USA, as a great power, follows a neo-imperialist policy to maintain regional hegemony.</li><li>China, a challenging power, adopts opportunistic strategies to counter or replace U.S. dominance.</li><li>India, an emerging power, pursues gradual engagement, potentially positioning itself as a future contender against both.</li></ul>By exploring these competing strategies through the lenses of Geoeconomics, Political Geography, and International Relations, the book offers a comprehensive timeline of geo-economic approaches and strategic engagements in the Gulf. With its critical insights into foreign policy, trade alliances, and resource diplomacy, this book is a valuable resource for researchers, academicians, and policymakers navigating the complexities of global power shifts in the 21st century.Sanjeev Kumar H.M.&nbsp;is a Professor, Department of Political Science, University of Delhi.

Contours of Geo-Economic Engagement with Special Reference to Iran and Iraq

The U.S., China and India in the Persian Gulf

At its zenith, the Islamic State was one of the most developed and powerful of the various militant organisations that have emerged within the Middle East in recent decades. Not limiting its objectives to organising mass casualty attacks, it constructed a complex system of administration, including an outreach department, which produced a large body of film, social media and literature. Of these, its flagship publication, Dabiq (later renamed Rumiyah), has been its most significant English-language output, and has the potential to tell us a great deal about its ideas and those of other non-state armed actors that claim to maintain some kind of relationship with Islam. Islam and the Islamic State begins by tracing out the emergence of the Islamic State. It locates its separatist appeal within the aftermath of the Iraqi invasion and the early years of the occupation--particularly the Coalition's successful efforts to prevent the formation of a unified national resistance movement. It then goes on to position the West's efforts to reveal its "true nature" within established narratives on the relationship between Islam and violence. This campaign of "ideological delegitimisation" lay at the heart of the military campaign to denude the so-called Caliphate and was, Tim Jacoby argues, central to a global attempt to downplay its quintessentially political motives. With this context in mind, the book this book seeks to understand what the Islamic State says about itself. Attempting to get beyond the moral opprobrium that characterises many other studies, it looks in detail at Dabiq/Rumiyah. The objective here is to analyse how this vital corpus of literature engages with Islamic exegeses--in terms of references to the Qur'an, classical scholarship and contemporary Muslims intellectuals. This reveals a complex and highly instrumental approach to the faith that was fundamentally driven by a determined claim to statehood.

Revolutionary Anxieties studies the role of the liberal elite during the Egyptian transitional period (2011-2014). It shows how the election of the Islamists caused anxiety among the liberal and cultural elites that constituted Cairo's exclusive society. The book examines their relationship with other Egyptians--those who were not part of Cairo's exclusive society, including their servants, the city's poor, and members of Islamist parties. It further illustrates how the narratives of "others" relied on dichotomies such as "ugly versus beautiful" and "civilized versus uncivilized," familiar to scholars from the colonial era. The book also shows how, during the transitional period, Cairo's liberal elite attempted to assert their superiority in various fields. Performative practices related to gender, culture, and art; etiquette and manners; the use of foreign languages; and knowledge of Egyptian history all manifested the cultural capital of the liberal elite. One purpose of this book is to explore the uses of the past in legitimizing and reinventing current cultural and socio-political asymmetries. Throughout, I demonstrate how access to narratives of Egypt's past--understood as "liberal" and "civilized"--functioned as a critical resource for the elite who opposed the new Islamist rulers. The insistence on Egypt's true "civilized" character, which was seen as endangered by the Islamists, was closely tied to political calculations.
