[edit] Summary

Number of country-specific United Nations General Assembly resolutions concerned with the Middle East vs total number of country-specific resolutions. The graph is additive.

Source: www.un.org

Methods:

• Country-specific resolutions: resolutions with mention, in the title, of a specific country or small region, e.g. "Southern Africa", "Balkans".
• Middle East: all resolutions with the following words in the title: Palest*, Israel*, Middle East, Lebanon, Jerusalem, Disengagement, 1967, Golan, UNRWA, occupied Arab territories, Bethlehem.

Resolutions are counted once, each part is counted separately. The jump between 1984 and 1985 corresponds to the introduction of multi-part resolutions. The counting of each part separately is justified because the number of parts reflects the amount of debate on the subject.

[edit] Personal comment

This graph is, heavens forbid, the result of Original Research by myself, and is also an image. Original research is not allowed in Wikipedia, but original images are. The survival of this graph to the scrutiny of the NOR police therefore depends on this ambiguity. If you want to publish this data elsewhere, I'll be glad to email it to you as an Excel table.
