Description for Regional Powers in the Middle East: New Constellations after the Arab Revolts (The Modern Muslim World)
Hardcover. The Arab Spring as the initiator of far-reaching changes in the regional power constellation. Editor(s): Furtig, Henner. Series: The Modern Muslim World. Num Pages: 232 pages, 3 black & white tables. BIC Classification: 1FB; JPB; JPS. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 144 x 217 x 17. Weight in Grams: 416.
With theoretically-rich contributions from an international group of political scientists, historians, and economists, this volume addresses the puzzle of why the Middle East has produced no single dominant and acknowledged regional power, despite contenders such as Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Israel, and Turkey. Rich, theoretically-engaged case study chapters address a gap in the vibrant international academic discussion on the role of (new) regional powers in global politics. Fürtig offers powerful insights into both the unique nature of the Middle East region, with its dispersed power structures and competing centers, and probable new power constellations.
