Starting from the concept of state to understand the transformations, dynamics and balances of power is fundamental when looking at the Middle East. And it became even more so after the so-called “Arab Springs” of 2011. Although in recent years the focus has been heavily on the emergence of non-state actors – terrorist organizations and transversal jihadist groups, tribes and local militias – authoritarianism, sectarianism, political Islam, rentier state and state building remain key issues. The volume addresses them through a series of interviews with scholars and experts curated by the young editors of Pandora Magazine, in an innovative dialectical form that guides the reader on a guided path of approach and understanding, indispensable for those who are not satisfied with media simplifications on issues that have a growing impact also on Italian political events. Dialogues with Giuseppe Acconcia, Cinzia Bianco, Massimo Campanini, Francesco Cavatorta, Irene Costantini, Rosita Di Peri, Alberto Gasparetto, Giacomo Luciani, Alberto Negri, Annalisa Perteghella, Valeria Talbot, Lorenzo Trombetta, Arturo Varvelli.
