The Origin of the Democratic Ideal World democracy was the secret dream of the great classical philosophers. . . . Thousands of years before Columbus they were aware of the existence of our Western Hemisphere and selected it to be the site of the philosophic empire. . . The brilliant plan of the Ancients has survived to our time, and it will continue to function until the great work is accomplished. . . . The American nation desperately needs a vision of its own purpose.

Antalya, 22 March 2011. ERF Chairman of the Board, Abdlatif Al-Hamad (Arab Fund for Economic and Social Development) reflects on the value of the Economic Research Forum and the role it can play in the context of the recent developments in the Arab region. For Mr. Al-Hamad, who has been associated with ERF since its foundation, the institution is a very important actor in the Arab region: ERF is in fact a unique organisation which overlaps the whole Arab world, Turkey and Iran. It can foster mutual learning and knowledge sharing among the different countries, and leverage the complementarity that exists in the region as a whole. ERF should continue in its excellent effort of bringing relevant research to the region. In lights of the recent developments in the Arab world, Mr. Al-Hamad underlines the importance of “gearing our minds and resources” to understand these events and prioritize the research agenda, so to be relevant and effective for the region.

La lakers Vs Atlanta Hawks highlights Feb 14, 2012 Pau Gasol scored seven of his 20 points in the final 5:20 and grabbed 13 rebounds, and the Los Angeles Lakers beat the Atlanta Hawks 86-78 on Tuesday night. Andrew Bynum had 15 points and 15 rebounds for the Lakers, who returned from a 3-3 road trip and improved to 12-2 at home — compared to 5-10 away. Kobe Bryant, whose jumper in the final 5 seconds beat Toronto on Sunday, finished this one with only 10 points in 34 minutes on 5 for 18 shooting. The Hawks shot just 34.4 percent in the opener of a five-game trip. Jeff Teague led them with 18 points, and All-Star Joe Johnson was held to 15 in 37 minutes on 7 for 17 shooting. Josh Smith, still smarting from his All-Star sub, also scored 15. It was the only meeting this season between the teams, due to the lockout-shortened, 66-game schedule. The last time Atlanta won the season series was 1978-79, when it took three of four under coach Hubie Brown. Bryant, who missed 10 of his first 11 shots against the New York Knicks last Friday in a 92-85 loss, was 1 for 10 from the field in the first half against Atlanta. But he made four of his first five after intermission, helping Los Angeles take a 59-51 lead into the fourth quarter. The 14-time All-Star and two-time scoring champ, who turns 34 years old on Aug. 23, came in leading the NBA with a 29.2 average. The oldest player to win a league scoring title was Michael Jordan, who was 35 years and 61 days old when he finished the …

With uprisings in Egypt, Tunisia and Yemen, the political landscape of the Middle East has seemingly changed overnight. Millions are marching for freedom and democratic government: some leaders are fleeing, others are fighting to stay in power.
