摘要

中东研究与信息项目(MERIP)成立于1971年,是美国新左派的一个项目,它与以贝鲁特为中心的阿拉伯新左派团结一致,并从中东和北非的反帝国主义民族解放斗争中汲取灵感。巴勒斯坦问题是一个中心问题,但肯定不是唯一的问题。从一开始,MERIP就致力于将政治经济学作为理解中东和北非的关键方法。它突出了石油在地区权力结构中的重要性,以及对新兴的美国帝国的重要性。它的许多文章都着重分析了阶级和资本的社会关系。MERIP对“阿拉伯社会主义”和泛阿拉伯民族主义作为官方国家意识形态持谨慎态度。该书对1979年伊朗革命的分析,以及对政治经济学重要性的强调,为MERIP赢得了英美学术界的尊重。政治经济学从未从MERIP的定位中消失,尽管其重要性从20世纪80年代中期到21世纪头十年中期有所下降。2008年的金融危机再次引起了人们对全球资本主义结构的关注。MERIP的历史定位于参与对阶级,资本,市场的重新关注,更多地关注这些关系的种族化和性别特征。

MERIP and Political Economy in Middle East Studies
Abstract The Middle East Research and Information Project (MERIP) was founded in 1971 as a project of the American New Left in solidarity with and drawing inspiration from the Beirut-centered Arab New Left and anti-imperialist struggles for national liberation in the Middle East and North Africa. The question of Palestine was a central, but certainly not exclusive, concern. From its origins MERIP was committed to political economy as a key method to understanding the Middle East and North Africa. It highlighted the importance of oil in the regional power structure and to the emergent U.S. empire. Many of its articles featured analyses of the social relationships of class and capital. MERIP was wary of “Arab socialism” and pan-Arab nationalism as official state ideologies. Its analysis of the 1979 Iranian revolution won MERIP and its emphasis on the importance of political economy a respected place in Anglo-American academia. Political economy never disappeared from MERIP's orientation, although its salience declined from the mid-1980s to the mid-2000s. The financial crisis of 2008 drew renewed attention to the structure of global capitalism. MERIP's history positioned it to participate in the renewed attention to class, capital, markets with more attention to the racialized and gendered character of these relationships.
