Yemen in Crisis - Autocracy, Neo-Liberalism and the Disintegration of a State (Hardcover)

Yemen is in the grip of its most severe crisis in years. The civil
war between the Huthi rebels and the Western and Arab supporters of
the regime has resulted in thousands killed and three million
displaced. Those who remain suffer severe food shortages and a
collapsed economy. The struggle for power in the Arab world's
poorest but strategically vital nation has serious implications for
the region and beyond. While Egypt and Saudi Arabia fear that a
Huthi takeover would threaten free passage of oil through the Bab
al-Mandab strait, western governments fear a rise of attacks from
al-Qa'ida and IS as the country becomes more unstable. In this
invaluable analysis, Helen Lackner uncovers the social and
political conflicts that threaten the very survival of the state
and its people. She reveals the corruption of the country's
US-backed autocratic regime and how it failed to address national
impoverishment and to plan an equitable economy for Yemen's growing
population.
