Sir John Arbuthnott, president of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, said: “The RSE has always been international in outlook as well as seeking to advance knowledge domestically and I see it as vitally important that we host an event such as this which seeks to examine one of the most relevant developments in the world in recent years, the Arab Spring.”
