The civil commotion, which started with Muhammed Bouazizi's setting himself on fire in Tunisia, seems not to have remained limited with Tunisia but to have exercised control over the Arab Middle East as well. As a matter of fact, the uprisings in the Arab countries are the obvious proof of this situation. It seems that the Middle East has been going through a new political turbulence with these events emerging in Tunisia. However, the course of the current events and their consequences still remain uncertain. In that case, the political and economic transition, which Turkey has gone through, is important for the future and the stability of the Middle East. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
