Presenting bold and original insights, this book examines the
policies and diplomacies pursued by Arab and Western governments,
while discussing both the political and cultural roles played by
the modern Arab World. It explores the various facets of the
malaise affecting the Arab world, stressing the urgent call for
reform and recovery, as well as the need to address major issues
including inter-Arab affairs, relations with a hegemonic USA, and
peace with Israel.
In addition, the book provides new perspectives on a range of
topics including Arab and Muslim diplomacy, literature, and
culture; often as these interact with Western models and paradigms
in an increasingly interconnected but challenging world. Employing
a combination of disciplines and discourses, the book aids learners
and policy-makers in better understanding the Arab world's
successes and failures in its problematic relations with the West
and modernity.
