Increasingly the Middle East and its growing population face a
highly complex and fragile security system. The rich deposits of
natural resources, such as oil and gas, suffer from a strained
renewable resource base that includes water and arable land. This
leads to water scarcity, desertification, and land degradation.
Increasing population, industrialization, and urbanization put more
and more demand on the food supply. Energy insecurity may not be
generally associated with the Middle East, but the countries in the
eastern Mediterranean part have been traditionally vulnerable to it
as their fossil fuel endowments have been low. Another issue is the
large-scale temporary labor migration and the large number of
forced migrants, refugees, and internally displaced persons. The
book analyzes these emerging security challenges in a comprehensive
and systematic manner. It draws national and regional security
issues into both the global security and human security
perspectives.
