Description:
The Middle East has long been fraught with tension and volatility.
However, the recent Arab uprisings have intensified instability,
turning this 'hot-spot' into a veritable tinderbox whose potential
for implosion has far-reaching regional and global consequences.


In this short book, leading Middle East scholar Mohammed Ayoob
argues that the Arab Spring has both changed and charged some of
the region?s thorniest problems - from the rise of political
Islam to Iran?s nuclear ambitions, the Israel-Palestine
conflict to rivalries between key regional powers. Exploring the
sources of conflict in the Middle East and their various linkages,
Ayoob offers a thoughtful and balanced assessment of whether the
region is indeed destined for implosion or whether political
sagacity and diplomatic creativity can bring it back from the
brink.
