‘Gulf Translations’ is a series that deals with the most prominent regional and international studies that address some of the important issues of the Gulf region. ‘Gulf Translations’ offers a number of studies that discern and analyze a wide palette of topics from an in-depth and objective perspective. This issue of ‘Gulf Translations’ is devoted to a report prepared specially on the conference held on ‘Arab Reform & Challenges of the European Policy’. Indeed, the event constituted a forum for dialogue and offered a unique opportunity for a distinguished pool of Arab and Western decision-makers, academic experts and scholars to meet and exchange ideas and views about the current conditions regarding the reform issue and its future prospects throughout the Arab world. In view of the importance of this issue and its role in the process of change in the Arab world, the Gulf Research Center (GRC) has prepared in cooperation with a number of world-renowned specialized scholars and academic experts this report in order to disseminate knowledge and make it available to students and scholars interested in this specific issue out of the Center’s mission statement: ‘Knowledge for All’.
