​The Unit for Political Studies is the Center's department dedicated to studying the region's most pressing current affairs. An integral and vital part of the ACRPS' activities, it offers an academically rigorous analysis of issues that are relevant and useful to the public, academics and policy-makers of the Arab region and beyond. The Unit for Policy Studies draws on the collaborative efforts of a number of scholars based within and outside the ACRPS. It produces three of the Center's publication series: Situation Assessment, Policy Analysis, and Case Analysis reports.
