Quantum Politics: New Methodological Perspective

‎
Quantum Politics
New Methodological Perspective

Ali Asghar Kazemi

Tehran- February 2011‎




Introduction
Recent events and escalating crises at the start of the year 2011 throughout the Arab states of the Middle East and ‎North Africa, from Tunisia and Egypt, Libya to  Yemen, have truly shocked observers, ‎researchers and ‎specialists who missed the symptoms of these fundamental shifts. ‎It appears that ‎traditional and existing theories have not been ‎able to predict the ‎development of  ‎unexpected changes in the region. This paper ‎is an attempt to ‎explain the matter through new methodological approach built on ‎chaos and ‎quantum theories.‎ ‎
If you are among those students of politics and international relations who are fed-up ‎‎‎with enormous numbers of theories, methods and paradigms in these fields, try to ‎‎‎understand this last one exposed in the present short essay. It may help you to view ‎‎and discuss political phenomenon in a different new way. Of course, the novelty of ‎‎this approach may make its comprehension a little bit difficult. Therefore, I don’t ‎‎guarantee that ‎you will swiftly grasp the subject and make a research case of it. It is ‎‎suggested that the interested reader go through the whole text and references with ‎‎attention and repeat the process if necessary[1].‎ ......


‎ [1] ‎ ‎This paper is a follow-up of a previous essay by the author on “Dynamic versus Static Political ‎Inquiry” ‎‎which was written last January 2011. It is suggested that the two papers be read together ‎for better ‎‎understanding the subject.‎ See: Academia www.academia1.blogspot.com   ‎
