Description

Increasingly the Middle East and its growing population face a highly complex and fragile security system.

The rich deposits of natural resources, such as oil and gas, suffer from a strained renewable resource base that includes water and arable land.

This leads to water scarcity, desertification, and land degradation.

Increasing population, industrialization, and urbanization put more and more demand on the food supply.

Energy insecurity may not be generally associated with the Middle East, but the countries in the eastern Mediterranean part have been traditionally vulnerable to it as their fossil fuel endowments have been low.

Another issue is the large-scale temporary labor migration and the large number of forced migrants, refugees, and internally displaced persons.

The book analyzes these emerging security challenges in a comprehensive and systematic manner.

It draws national and regional security issues into both the global security and human security perspectives.
