Der SWP-WebMonitor Nahost/Nordafrika ist ein unentgeltliches, kompaktes Informations-
produkt mit ausgewählten Hinweisen auf aktuelle Stellungnahmen, Dokumente und Analy-
sen zu allen (außen-) politisch relevanten Fragen und Entwicklungen der Region. Bei allen
Titeln gibt es einen Link, meistens direkt zum Volltext. Grundlage der Erstellung ist ein über-
wiegend festgelegtes Set an Quellen: Webseiten, Blogs, Zeitschriften etc. Der Auswahl-Fokus
liegt neben Dokumenten auf wissenschaftlichen bzw. wissenschaftlich basierten Beiträgen.
Neben Titeln mit konkretem Länder- bzw. Regionalbezug werden auch solche berücksichtigt,
deren Thematik relevant ist für die Region. Der WebMonitor wird i.d.R. ein- bis zweimal wö-
chentlich erstellt, nicht aber bei Abwesenheit des Bearbeiters.

ity in the political realm to indicate that the proceedings undermine the possibility of settling the

The promised land of Fadak: locating religious nationalism in shiite politics
Matthijs van den Bos
"Yāsir al-Ḥabīb is a Britain-based Islamic cleric of Kuwaiti origin who has sought to establish a reli-

tion. This article assesses his project as a particular form of shiite politics, in light of Peter van der
Veer’s transnational theory of religious nationalism. ..."
