This book provides a comprehensive analysis of the complexities of
change and continuity in West Asia, its society, religion and
politics. An overview of the region's political, social and
economic characteristics brought into sharper relief with the
on-going turmoil in the region constitutes the introduction of the
book. While the subsequent two chapters, along with the
introductory text, constitute the thematic overview and orientation
of the book, the different chapters dedicated to specific countries
explore the recent transformative developments in the region. These
chapters chart the emergence of Islamist and post Islamist politics
in Iran and Lebanon, elaborate upon the prevailing civil war
conditions in Iraq, Syria, Yemen and Libya, examine the impact of
the Arab uprisings that began in 2011 on Egypt, Jordan and the Arab
Gulf countries, and explore the intricate interplay between Islam
and democracy in the present-day politics of Turkey. While
highlighting politics, the texts of the chapters also delve into
history, religion and foreign policy. This book will be as useful
for the students of West Asian affairs as it will be for
policymakers and any interested reader. Please note: Taylor &
Francis does not sell or distribute the Hardback in India,
Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka
