The democratic promise of the 2011 Arab Spring has unraveled in
Yemen, triggering a disastrous crisis of civil war, famine,
militarization, and governmental collapse with serious implications
for the future of the region. Fueled by Arab and Western
intervention, the civil war has quickly escalated, resulting in
thousands killed and millions close to starvation. Suffering from a
collapsed economy, the people of Yemen face a desperate choice
between the Huthi rebels on the one side and the internationally
recognized government propped up by the Saudi-led coalition and
Western arms on the other. In this invaluable analysis, Helen
Lackner uncovers the roots of the social and political conflicts
that threaten the very survival of the state and its people. With a
new preface exploring the U.S.'s central role in the crisis.
