INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS AND MIDDLE EAST AFFAIRS INSTITUTES
A PARTIAL LIST  2004

Following is an alphabetically arranged list of institutes on Middle Eastern Affairs and International Relations.

The list includes institutes of different types: private, academic, and governmental. It was collected to allow easy access to a wide range of publications, usually referred to as “grey publications” which are not typically published in conventional journals, magazines or books, such as briefings, conference materials, research reports, working papers, etc., with special focus on the Middle East.

To locate these materials, time consuming searches on the internet are often required, but, once found, they are freely available and may be downloaded entirely. The list is selective and will be updated continually.
