Trends in Arab Public Opinion and Implications for Israel: A Conversation with Dr. David Pollock

A decade after a series of uprisings swept across the Arab world, what do citizens in these countries think about prospects for democracy, reform, and change? How come the Arab monarchies emerged from the regional upheaval in more stable condition than their republican counterparts, and to what extent did public opinion play a role? How do citizens in Arab countries view Israel? Dr. Sarah Feuer, INSS research fellow, sat down to discuss these and related questions with Dr. David Pollock, senior fellow at the Washington Institute and the author of “The Arab Spring Turns 10, Through the Prism of Public Opinion,” featured in the current volume of INSS’ flagship journal, Strategic Assessment.
