Managing Sars-CoV2 Infections Through Resolution of Inflammation by Eicosanoids
Severe Corona Virus Disease is characterized by angiocentric inflammation of lungs and cytokine storm leading to potentially fatal multiple organ failure. Several studies have shown the high levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, indicative of a poor prognosis in COVID-19. Eicosanoids play an important role in the induction of inflammation and cytokine production, while anti-inflammatory and pro-resolving properties of some eicosanoic acid derivat…
Nationalism in the Arab World Since 1945
Nationalism, as both a movement and an ideology, has played a major part in the history of the Arab world since 1945, be this in the form of pan-Arabism (espoused by Nasser and by the Ba’th Parties), of individual Arab states ( such as Egypt, Palestine, Syria, Iraq, Yemen, Algeria), or of Islamist variants, pan-Islamic, and national-Islamist. Under the impact of regional and international events, these variants of Arab nationalism have, at differ…
The Mediterranean in an age of Globalisation
Ladies and Gentlemen, on my own behalf as a professor of international relations, and on behalf of my host institution here, IBEI, the Barcelona Institute for International Studies, I would like to thank you for the kind invitation to address your Graduate Conference here today, and to share some thoughts, born of the intersection of my field of specialisation, International Relations, with the experience of living, writing, research, working and…
The Iranian Left in International Perspective
International Theory
Shocked and Awed
Far more than just a military conflict, the 'War on Terror' has been a struggle over values and meanings, a desperate contest for hearts and minds in which language has become the battlefield. In this highly original book, Fred Halliday takes us on a tour of this new war-zone, its artillery and trenches, minefields and booby-traps. Drawing on years of painstaking collation, Halliday shows how the 'War on Terror' has brought us not just new words,…
The Cold War
The collapse of European communism two decades ago appeared to determine, once and for all, the fate of radical socialism in the modern world and to draw a line under the forty years of Cold War that had now ended. In an overview of both the course and end of this global confrontation, and of the legacy of communism itself, this article argues that many of the analytical and social dimensions of the Cold War have still to be adequately addressed,…
The Middle East and Conceptions of ‘International Society’
Of all the areas of the third world, the Middle East is the one that has the longest history of interaction, military, political and economic, with the 'West' and, in particular, with the European state system, this latter understood as the set of institutions and norms that have together shaped modern, that is post-1500, and in particular post-1945, international relations. China, remote and unsubjugated, and the Americas, subjugated but unassim…
In a Time of Hopes and Fears
Pensée 3
The study of Arab nationalism, and indeed of all nationalisms, is beset with particular problems. One is the imprecision of the main concepts involved, starting with the definition of nation. Another is the confusion, inherent in the very word “nationalism,” between two quite different objects of study—nationalism as a movement , as a social and political force, and nationalism as an ideology . The first allows objective, historical analyses of h…
International Relations in a post-hegemonic age
In his valedictory lecture, concluding twenty-five years teaching at the London School of Economics and Political Science, Fred Halliday examines three aspects of the changing reality and intellectual context of International Relations. Placing a broad interpretation on the concept of the ‘post-hegemonic’ he looks at the changing nature of American power, the growing diversity of, and challenges to, the discipline of International Relations, and …

He Hasn't Finished Yet
Over the past thirty years, Michael Mann has become established as one of the world's leading social theorists. Mann's contributions to a range of disciplines and to a number of important issues — state formation, empire and what he terms the `dark side' of democracy and modernity — place him on a par with leading figures in both classical and contemporary social theory. At the same time, Mann's engagement with International Relations and his bro…
Obituary
The Middle East in International Relations
The international relations of the Middle East have long been dominated by uncertainty and conflict. External intervention, interstate war, political upheaval and interethnic violence are compounded by the vagaries of oil prices and the claims of military, nationalist and religious movements. The purpose of this book is to set this region and its conflicts in context, providing on the one hand a historical introduction to its character and proble…
The Middle East in International Relations
And Middle Eastern Studies past and future
The events of 9/11 intensified attacks on the field of Middle Eastern Studies, especially in the US—attacks whose reverberations have been felt ever since in academia and beyond. A key moment was the publication in 2001 of a book by Martin Kramer, Ivory towers on sand, which accused the field of irrelevance, failure to predict, lack of patriotism and wilful blindness to the failings in the Arab and Islamic world. In a Foreword to this review arti…

Revolution and World Politics
Revolutions, as much as international war or nationalism, have shaped the development of world politics. In cause, ideology, and consequence they have merited description as a sixth great power alongside the dominant nations. In Revolution and World Politics Fred Halliday reassesses the role of from the French Revolution to the Iranian Revolution and the collapse of communism. Halliday begins by tracing the origins and evolution of the modern con…

Hidden From International Relations
Over the last two and a half decades questions of gender, and particularly those concerning the place and role of women, have acquired much greater importance within the social sciences as a whole. In response to the rise of a women’s movement in some Western societies, and to the production of a growing body of analytic literature pertaining to women’s position, there has been a marked development in the agenda and concepts studied in a range of…

The sixth great power’
The discipline of International Relations has long had an uneasy relationship to revolution. Hannah Arendt's remark that the twentieth century has been shaped by wars and revolutions is often quoted, but it is striking how, within the institutionalized research and teaching on International Relations, these two historically formative processes receive differential treatment. Courses, journals, departments and institutes on war are plentiful. Stud…

Orbit of China
Rethinking the Middle East
For Marxists, using a theory that began as an analysis of capitalist society, precapitalist and colonial societies have presented a dual, dialectically interrelated problematic: problems of the theoretical analysis of such societies, and problems of revolutionary strategy in the colonial societies—where Marxists have too often been guided by
Class Struggle in the Arab Gulf
Since the 18th century, British imperialism has maintained control over the principalities of the eastern and southern coasts of the Arabian Peninsula; but this imperialist hegemony is now dissolving. As British forces retreat from the Gulf, new contradictions are exploding which threaten the position of world imperialism and
Counter-Revolution in the Yemen
The September 1962 revolution in the Yemen transformed it from an isolated and archaic survival from the Middle Ages which even imperialism was content to let slumber, into the fulcrum of the liberation struggle in the Arabian peninsula throughout the ensuing decade. The embattled Yemeni Republic became the
Marxism and Asia
The upsurge of colonial revolution in recent years has led to a fresh examination of earlier Marxist work on this topic, both by Marx and Engels themselves, and by theorists of the Third International. This book gives a serious and mainly non-polemical approach to some aspects of this
The Fighting in Eritrea
One of the more anomalous heroes of the anti-fascist struggle was Haile Selassie, Emperor of Ethiopia. Overrun by fascist Italy in 1935, Ethiopia and its leader became symbols of the fight for freedom, and when British troops put Selassie back on his throne in 1941 it was generally
Towards a Red Pakistan
The state of Pakistan is the creation of the reactionary forces that moulded the Indian sub-continent: British imperialism and Gandhian nationalism. Through colonial exploitation the one exacerbated the internal pre-capitalist religious differences of the sub-continent. The other, articulating the interests of the Hindu bourgeoisie under the guise of
The Ceylonese Insurrection

US policy in the Horn of Africa
Among the many questions raised by the dramatic events in the Horn of Africa none is more important or more misunderstood than that of the role played by the USA, and by its various Middle Eastern allies, in the region.

By contrast, the Ethiopian government has stressed …
