The 1990-91 Gulf War, the Israeli-PLO agreement, instances of
political and economic reform, and the radical political
reassertion of Islam, all indicate that the post-Cold War Middle
East is in the grip of dramatic changes. This has generated
considerable enthusiasm. Yet such transformation to the political
landscape bring with them daunting difficulties. The Middle East
faces a host of problems urgently in need of solutions if a
successful new world order is to be built on the ruins of the old.
In this book, an international group of scholars addresses these
issues, and considers the options for the political, social, and
economic reconstruction of the region. Themes covered include:
democratisation; the Arab state system in the new global
environment; the civil war in Arabia; security structures; the
Arab-Israeli conflict; the role and potential contribution of
pan-Islamism and pan-Arabism; and the prospects for economic
revival. Throughout, the linkages between regional dynamics and the
changing global environment are highlighted. Case-studies are drawn
from the whole region: from North Africa to the Gulf, and from
Syria to Yemen.
