Middle East Strategy at Harvard

Middle East Strategy at Harvard (MESH) is a project of the John M. Olin Institute for Strategic Studies at Harvard University. The Olin Institute is part of the Weatherhead Center for International Affairs.

MESH is a community of scholars and practitioners who are interested in the formulation of U.S. strategic options for the Middle East. Since 9/11 and the Iraq war, the Middle East has occupied a place of primacy in debates over U.S. global aims and strategies. MESH brings together some of the most original thinkers in academe, research centers, and government, in a public multi-expert weblog.

MESH is convened by Stephen Peter Rosen, director of the Olin Institute, and Martin Kramer, Olin Institute senior fellow. The conveners select MESH members, all of whom enjoy blogging privileges at MESH. Substantive comments are invited from members and other analysts. Comments are moderated.
