Book Description:
|
This book examines Gulf Security in a holistic way seeing past the narrow military aspect and also trying to debunk the conventional narratives propagated by regional and external actors. It amounts to a sobering examination of the balance of threat in the region, the historical amity/enmity patterns and the evolving American stance.
A shorter, modified version of this book was previously published as a special issue of the British Journal of Middle Eastern Studies.
