The Center for Middle Eastern Studies (Turkish: Ortadoğu Araştırmaları Merkezi, also known as ORSAM) is a non-profit, non-partisan think tank in Ankara, Turkey, founded on January 1, 2009. It seeks "to provide relevant information to the general public and to the foreign policy community".[1]
Activities
ORSAM mainly publishes reports on the Middle East with the aim of contributing "towards a healthier understanding and analysis of international politics and the Middle Eastern issues".[2] For example, ORSAM, collaborating with the Turkish Economic and Social Studies Foundation, prepared a detailed report on the effects of Syrian refugees on Turkey in January 2015.[3]
In addition to these reports, ORSAM publications include books, bulletins, newsletters, policy briefs, conference minutes and two journals: Ortadoğu Analiz (Middle Eastern Analysis) and Ortadoğu Etütleri (ISSN 2687-430X). Ortadoğu Etütleri is a bimonthly academic journal. Middle Eastern Analysis is a bimonthly popular journal. While Ortadoğu Etütleri publishes articles in both Turkish and English, the language of Ortadoğu Analiz is Turkish.
