"The 2011 Arab uprisings precipitated the relatively quick collapse of a number of Middle Eastern states once perceived as invincible. The Tunisian and Egyptian states succumbed to revolutionary upheavals early on, followed by that of Qadhafi's Libya. Yemen's President Saleh was also eventually forced to give up power. A bloody civil war continues to rage in Syria. These uprisings highlighted weaknesses in the capacity and legitimacy of states across the Arab Middle East. This book provides a comprehensive study of state weakness-or of 'weak states'-across the Greater Middle East. No other book examines the subject of weak states in the Middle East. Fragile Politics begins with laying the theoretical framework for the study of weak states, examining the theoretical controversies surrounding the topic, the causes and characteristics of weak states, and their consequences for the Middle East. It then looks at a series of case studies, examining various themes within the study of weak states in relation to each case study." -- Publisher's description "A comprehensive study of state weakness-or of "weak states"-across the Greater Middle East."--inside flap. 2000-2099 fast Failed states Middle East Political stability Middle East Nation-building Middle East Failed states (OCoLC)fst01743190 fast Nation-building (OCoLC)fst01737474 fast Political stability (OCoLC)fst01069883 fast Politics and government (OCoLC)fst01919741 fast Middle East Politics and government 21st century Middle East (OCoLC)fst01241586 fast Kamrava Mehran 1964- editor Georgetown University Center for International and Regional Studies https://oxford.universitypressscholarship.com/view/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780190246211.001.0001/acprof-9780190246211 Uni Bern: Volltext BK020053 XK020053 XK020000 Oxford Scholarship Online Political Science Oxford Scholarship Online E-Books von 360MarcUpdates IDSBB B405 B405 405VT NELB4051707 IDSBB 130 -- Fragile politics (2016) IDSBB 700 1- Kamrava Mehran 1964- editor IDSBB 710 2- Georgetown University Center for International and Regional Studies IDSBB 856 40 https://oxford.universitypressscholarship.com/view/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780190246211.001.0001/acprof-9780190246211 Uni Bern: Volltext SWISSBIB 36603023X
