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.

Vladimir Rauta
"... argues for a relocation of proxy wars by conceptualising them as strategic bargains waged on
more complex grounds than risk avoidance, cost efficiency and deniability. He identifies two types
of strategic goals sought through the employment of proxies: coercing and coping with an adver-
sary, the differences of which are presented by contrasting the rationale for the US decision to sup-
port Syrian rebels against President Bashar Al-Assad with the Iranian strategy of proxy war in
Syria."
