This edition of MEJB comes out at a critical time in the history of the Middle East region and the world, with the Global Financial Crises and uprisings in the Middle East dominating global headlines as well as the worldwide protests against corporate greed.

Our first two articles look at both the Middle East economic outlook and the Global economic outlook.

A further review article in the series by Dr Mohsen Rezaeian this month looks at reviewing academic papers and a paper from Dr Abyad reviews two books on aspects of marketing.

Finally after all the recent drama death and unrest in Libya, we have a more gentle article for our Arts section and a good news story from the Australian Defence Force with a Middle East connection.
