The Middle East and North Africa (MENA): Fragility, Fragmentation, and Crisis
( Common Ground Research Networks , 2023 , Article)The paper examines the fragility, fragmentation, and crisis in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) by dissecting the region into three subregions-Maghreb, Mashreq, and the GCC-and elaborating on their complex contours, ... -
Gulf householding: implications of gulf migration for social reproduction
( Taylor & Francis , 2024 , Article)This paper introduces the idea of ‘Gulf householding’ to reflect on migrant households that send their members to the Arab Gulf states for work and rely on material and non-material supports for formation and sustenance ... -
OCTUNE: Optimal Control Tuning Using Real-Time Data with Algorithm and Experimental Results
