Produktbeschreibung

Reconstructing the Middle East examines the changes that happened within the region from 2010 and the long-term challenges and opportunities they present. Featuring the work of authors with a diversity of perspectives, it addresses key issues of gender rights, the role of young people and of the international community. In addition, it deals with the questions of both political and economic reform, and the intertwined nature of the two. Political reform that allows greater participation will fail to quell frustration if Arabs continue to feel that job prospects are bleak. Similarly, Arabs will not accept economic reform that restores growth but continues to fence off the political sphere.
