Physical activity and motivational readiness for physical activity behavior change in adults with non-communicable diseases in Germany
Lower rates of WHO PA recommendation fulfilment is recognized for most NCD groups compared to the population without NCD for both surveys, but the proportion of adults with NCD who meet the WHO PA recommendations differ widely between NCD groups. A positive trend from 2014/15 to 2019/20 can only be seen for adults with osteoarthritis. Based on our findings the implementation of PA promotion particular with regards to motivational readiness and di…
Owning, Renting and Environmental Proactivity
Past research indicates that for older individuals, transitioning to a home environment better suited to their needs reduces physical, psychological, and social risks, and may even impact the rate of institutionalization. Tenants, compared to homeowners, are subject to different conditions that influence their decisions to relocate, which can either encourage or inhibit them in their pursuit of environmental proactivity. This study investigates w…
Israel, Gaza and the Politics of Palliative Peace
Western media and politicians often describe the unprecedented devastation since October 7th uncritically accepting three notions. First, that Arab governments vigorously oppose Israel's actions. Yet, despite the Palestinian question being central to their domestic politics and despite energy suppliers' leverage over energy-insecure Western states, Arab regimes have issued little more than stern statements. Second, while Israel justifies its viol…
Towards long-term care system innovation in Europe
Population ageing is one of the most impactful phenomena in contemporary Western societies. COVID-19 put great pressure on worldwide public health and long-term care (LTC) systems, demanding substantial investments in search of new sustainability. This study analyses the opinions of European experts on the positive and negative aspects of the impact of COVID-19 on their national LTC systems to identify valuable lessons and innovative policies for…
Cross-national data on informal caregivers of older people with long-term care needs in the European population
To promote long-term care policies for older adults, accurate mapping of the often invisible and insufficiently recognized role of their informal caregivers is needed. This paper measures the prevalence of informal caregivers in the European population, illustrates current difficulties in gathering unequivocal information on this topic and deals with the scientific and policy implications of the problem. Using the European Health Interview Survey…
Gramsci’s ‘Southern Question’ and Egypt’s authoritarian retrenchment
Explanations of the authoritarian retrenchment after Egypt’s 2011 Revolution invoke either the regime’s repressive advantage over ‘leaderless’ mobilisation and civic activists, or insufficient preparations and radicalism on the part of opposition groups. Both explanations are unsatisfactory. First, because despite being ‘reformist’, opposition groups’ demands were perceived as radical challenges to regimes before, during and after the uprisings. …
Scholarship on the Middle East in Political Science and International Relations
A recently published dataset of Middle East and North Africa (MENA)–focused scholarship in journals selected to represent the disciplinary “core” of political science sheds empirical light on key publishing trends, from the balance between quantitative and qualitative studies to the growth in experimental and “large-N” statistical methods. Cammett and Kendall’s (2021) analysis shows that between 2001 and 2019, MENA-focused studies declined as a s…
Needs and Needs Communication of Nursing Home Residents with Depressive Symptoms
Nursing home residents are affected by depressive symptoms more often than elders living at home. There is a correlation between unmet needs and depression in nursing home residents, while met needs positively correlate with greater satisfaction and well-being. The study aims to examine the needs of nursing home residents with depressive symptoms and the communication of those needs, as no previous study has explicitly addressed the needs of this…
Factors Worsening and Mitigating the Consequences of the Covid-19 Outbreak on the Overall Health of Informal Caregivers of Older People with Long-Term Care Needs Living in Germany and in Italy
Population ageing and the higher prevalence of multimorbidity in later life are increasing the demand for Long-Term Care (LTC) worldwide; this has been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. As in Europe and beyond, the bulk of care for frail older people is carried out by informal caregivers. This study aimed at understanding the factors affecting the overall worsening health of informal caregivers of older people with LTC needs living in Germany…

Prelude to the revolution. Independent civic activists in Mubarak's Egypt and the quest for hegemony
This article explores whether, in the decade preceding the 2011 uprising, Egypt’s Independent Civic Activists (ICAs) can be considered organic intellectuals in terms of Antonio Gramsci’s well-known definition. To do so, three aspects of ‘organicity’ with respect to subaltern groups are identified: a ‘demographic’ dimension, namely their embeddedness within subaltern groups; an ‘ideological’ dimension pertaining to their ability to correctly ident…
How Many Older Informal Caregivers Are There in Europe? Comparison of Estimates of Their Prevalence from Three European Surveys
Informal caregivers are people providing some type of unpaid, ongoing assistance to a person with a chronic illness or disability. Long-term care measures and policies cannot take place without taking into account the quantitatively crucial role played by informal caregivers. We use the European Health Interview Survey (EHIS), the European Quality of Life Survey (EQLS), and the Study on Health and Ageing in Europe (SHARE) to measure the prevalenc…
Risk Profiles for Care Dependency
Background: Rising life expectancy in Western societies is accompanied by a rising incidence of care dependency (CD) among older people. Objective: The aim of the study was to examine which health-related and social determinants were associated with CD. Method: We used cross-sectional data from the first follow-up ( N = 1,699) of a prospective, population-based cohort study of older participants (≥70 years). CD was assessed if participants requir…

The Arab Uprisings in Egypt, Jordan and Tunisia
The tide that failed to rise
The story of the ‘Arab Spring’ as a revolt of young people against autocracy does not stand up to survey analysis at country level. Data from the Arab Transformations Survey show that young people were over-represented as participants, but it is necessary to stretch the concept of ‘youth’ into middle age in some countries to say this, there were plenty of older participants, and the protests were aimed less at political rights and more at social …
Sunni Islam and Islamism 1
Shiism represents Islam’s largest minority branch with up to 15 per cent of the world’s 1.5 billion Muslims. This chapter discusses the sacred foundations of Shiism with reference to which subsequent significant Shia approaches to politics have developed. These foundations were laid during a period where the ‘proto-Shia’ lost the early confrontations over the Prophet’s succession. The chapter examines the period characterised by the ‘quietist’ re…
The EU's policy response to the Uprisings
The EU claimed it would learn the lessons of the Arab Uprisings with what it called a “qualitative step forward” in its approach to development, democracy, and security. However, an examination of
Democracy Without Social Justice
Although EU democracy assistance (DA) policy has been criticized both before and after the Arab Uprisings for reflecting a one-size-fits-all (neo) liberal script, there is little detailed exploration of how exactly EU policy is ‘liberal’. With this objective, this article examines the conceptual structure of ‘democracy’ in key policy documents. It finds that the ideas of democracy and its promotion remain virtually unchanged after the uprisings. …
Informal Power in the Greater Middle East
The Arab Middle East has entered a moment of revolution, inevitable counterrevolution, and transition. Integral to this moment is a dialectical dynamic in which the formal and the informal conjugate, through unsettled tension and interaction between endless forces, voices and discourses; bid to re-imagine community; and seek to pin down their idealized community to preferences in terms of morality, polity, society and intellectual artefacts, incl…
Orientalism as a form of Confession
In addition to being characterised as a ‘regime of truth’, Orientalist discourses also display the general properties of confessional discourses outlined in Foucault’s Will to Knowledge. The article argues that there is a similarity in the ‘effects of power’ made possible within these frameworks, particular regarding the legitimisation and application of discipline. Finally, the paper draws out a few implications for the analysis of power and res…
EU Democracy Assistance Discourse in Its New Response to a Changing Neighbourhood
Drawing on Critical Discourse Analysis, this article compares the structure of key policy documents on European Union (EU) democracy promotion in the Southern Neighborhood before and after the “Arab Uprisings.” With reference to the key document presenting the EU's revised conception of democracy and strategic vision in the Southern Neighborhood, this article argues that, despite assertions of a paradigmatic shift in the EU's approach to democrac…

Bridging the Gap
Although International Relations and Middle East Studies share an interest in several aspects of Middle East politics, interdisciplinary research remains surprisingly scarce. This article asks why, despite repeated calls since the inception of these fields, this interdisciplinary gap has never been bridged. It supplements conventional approaches which emphasize a simple intellectual history, with elements of a political economy of the organizatio…

The EU's First Response to the ‘Arab Spring’
This paper uses critical discourse analysis (CDA) to analyse the EU's first policy reassessment in light of the Arab uprisings. COM(2011)200 A Partnership for Democracy and Shared Prosperity (PfDSP) claims to outline a new framework for EU Democracy Assistance (DA) based on a new conception of democracy, and a new position for democracy in the EU's external relations. The paper analyses PfDSP and one of its key antecedents, COM(2001)252, to asses…

Convergent (il)liberalism in the Mediterranean? Some notes on Egyptian (post-)authoritarianism and Italian (post-)democracy
This paper explores the hypothesis of a convergence between ‘backsliding’ European liberal democracies and the ‘pseudo-liberalization’ of Middle Eastern authoritarian systems (Cavatorta, 2010) by considering the similarities, beyond the well-known differences, between Italy and Egypt. We suggest that standard indicators of regime type (e.g. Polity IV Authority Index) fail to capture important trends both in the evolution of both the forms of poli…
