Eric Rouleau
Eric Rouleau (1926–2015) dominated news coverage of the Middle East in France and well beyond for decades as grand reporter and head of the Middle East Department at the authoritative French daily Le Monde. A third worldist, an unapologetic man of the Left, and a steadfast champion of the Palestinians, he nonetheless enjoyed unparalleled access to the Israeli leadership, the region's heads of state both right and left, as well as opponents and re…
Evaluating University Research Performance Using Metrics
Evaluations of research quality in universities are now widely used in the advanced economies. The UK's Research Assessment Exercise (RAE), which began in 1986, is the most highly developed of these research evaluations. Based on peer review and involving some sixty-nine panels evaluating the research work of more than 50,000 academic staff, the exercise is expensive and time consuming. In this article, we examine the possibility that a quantitat…

Metrics or Peer Review? Evaluating the 2001 UK Research Assessment Exercise in Political Science
Evaluations of research quality in universities are now widely used in the advanced economies. The UK's Research Assessment Exercise (RAE) is the most highly developed of these research evaluations. This article uses the results from the 2001 RAE in political science to assess the utility of citations as a measure of outcome, relative to other possible indicators. The data come from the 4,400 submissions to the RAE political science panel. The 28…
Testing novel quantitative indicators of research 'quality', esteem and 'user engagement'
Applying ‘standard’ publication and citation measures to the social sciences is fast becoming an outmoded practice, yet we have still to develop credible quantitative alternatives to inform research evaluation exercises. This paper reports the outcomes of a comparative pilot study of five Australian economics departments which tested data produced using novel bibliometric, esteem, and ‘user engagement’ measures. The results were presented to a gr…

Asad's Regional Strategy and the Challenge from Netanyahu
Over the last thirty years, Hafiz al-Asad has striven to make his country indispensable to any Middle East settlement. Netanyahu's victory, however, and a hardening of U.S. sentiment toward Syria, are threatening to marginalize him. While analyzing Netanyahu's thinking on Syria and Syria's possible responses, the article reviews Asad's years in power and the essential unity of his career. It traces his evolution from the quest for "strategic pari…

Applicability of Bender-Gestalt Emotional Indicators for Emotionally Disturbed and Nonreferred Students
30 emotionally disturbed and 29 nonreferred elementary school-aged students were administered the Bender-Gestalt. Protocols were analyzed for developmental age and 12 emotional indicators. Present groups did not differ significantly in total number of indicators even when chronological age and Bender age were covaried, confirming Koppitz's analysis. Small but significant correlations were noted between total number of indicators and age
