The Arab Uprisings have brought renewed attention to the role of
the military in the MENA region, where they are either the backbone
of regime power or a crucial part of patronage networks in
political systems. This collection of essays from international
experts examines the economic interests of armed actors ranging
from military businesses in Egypt, Turkey, Iran, Pakistan, Jordan,
Sudan, and Yemen to retired military officers' economic endeavors
and the web of funding of non-state armed groups in Syria and
Libya. Due to the combined power of business and arms, the military
often manages to incorporate or quell competing groups and thus, to
revert achievements of revolutionary movements.
