New Issue of Democratiya Now Available

September 2nd, 2008 by Jason

The Autumn issue of Democratiya is now up. Gary Kent has a detailed report of his three recent fact-finding missions to Iraq. In the Kurdistan Region, he finds a resilient cadre of leaders struggling to strengthen the Kurds’ nascent democratic institutions.  And in an interview with Prime Minister Nouri Al-Maliki in Baghdad, he senses the PM’s growing confidence in the face of recent security improvements.

Also in the issue, Max Dunbar reviews Caroline Fourest’s new book on Tariq Ramadan, Brother Tariq: The Doublespeak of Tariq Ramadan. There’s also a review by David Lowe of Natan Sharansky’s new book, Defending Identity: Its indespensable Role in Protecting Democracy.
