Sažetak
Based on a quantitative analysis of content of scientific and professional journals on the central portal of scientific journals in the Republic of Croatia (Hrčak), the author provides insight into a branch of regional comparative politics studying the Middle East. He found that 75 scientific and professional papers on the Middle East have been published, only 11 of which dealing with North African countries. This serves to show that the mentioned sub-region of the Middle East is highly underrepresented in Croatian scientific and professional literature. Furthermore, of the 75 articles on the Middle East, 25 are professional papers. The largest number of scientific papers on the Middle East (13) was published in the Politička misao journal, while only 5 papers were published in other scientific journals whose publisher or co-publisher is the Faculty of Political Science. Finally, qualitative analysis of articles from four journals published or co-published by the Faculty of Political Science has shown that comparative regional studies are far more common than traditional regional ones.
