Understanding the Contemporary Middle East, Paperback / softback Book

Understanding the Contemporary Middle East Paperback / softback

Edited by Jillian Schwedler

Part of the Understanding: Introductions to the States and Regions of the Contemporary World series

Paperback / softback

Description

The previous edition of Understanding the Contemporary Middle East was published soon after the Arab uprisings, and the authors—writing across disciplines—captured those moments of possibility.

Since then, the Middle East is substantially changed, with three protracted civil wars, several retrenched authoritarian regimes, possibly one emerging democracy, and social and economic conditions that have been profoundly affected by the new political environment.

This thoroughly revised and updated edition explores both the impact of recent events in shaping the region and the continuities with established patterns of political, economic, and social relations.
