Download or read book The Saudi egyptian Conflict Over North Yemen 1962 1970 written by Saeed M Badeeb and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-11 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1962 coup d'état in North Yemen initiated one of the most debilitating Middle East conflicts ever, the eight-year civil war in North Yemen. This conflict in an obscure corner of the Arab world eventually assumed global importance, attracting the attention of the superpowers and the United Nations. This book focuses on the Yemeni civil war's impact at the regional level, where it provoked enmity between two influential Arab states, Saudi Arabia and Egypt. Dr. Badeeb argues that for Egypt, the war constituted a means of intensifying and confirming its role as the leader of the revolutionary camp in the Arab world. For Saudi Arabia, however, it presented a direct challenge to the security and stability of the kingdom. Dr. Badeeb provides a valuable elucidation of Saudi Arabia's concern over Yemen as a potential source of political and strategic upheaval. This lately unappreciated aspect of the regional security picture is in part a legacy of the Saudi-Egyptian conflict of the 1960s and is one of the central elements of current Saudi security policy.

Download or read book The Diplomacy of the Crucial Decade written by Diane B. Kunz and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the foreign policy decisions made by Kennedy and Johnson determined the final form of postwar diplomacy and laid the foundation for the tumultuous worldwide political changes of the last five years, until now no book has examined American diplomacy during 1960s as a whole. During his presidency, Kennedy concentrated on foreign policy. The president and his staff feared that communism had taken the offensive internationally and that the U.S. was in danger of losing the confrontation, particularly in the developing world. While Johnson attempted to focus on domestic issues, foreign issues nevertheless loomed large. Consequently, the contributors to this volume argue, all aspects of American foreign policy during that decade must be viewed through the prism of the fight against communism. The chapters, which were commissioned for this book by the editor, examine the major subjects and themes of this period in a way that provides new insight to students and general readers alike. Each chapter also contains brief notes and a bibliographic sketch.
Download or read book Yemen written by Steven C. Caton and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2013-04-09 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yemen is a country that is critical to U.S. security and our political interests, yet most Americans know virtually nothing about it. This book unlocks its secrets and explains its complexities in simple yet compelling language. A nation with a rich civilization that has spanned 3,000 years, Yemen is the only democratic republic in the Arabian Peninsula. While events in modern-day Yemen are often in international news, most Americans know nothing about this country—nor are there easy-to-read, up-to-date resources for lay audiences. This book fills the gap in the literature. It describes Yemen's geography, economy, politics and government, history, culture, society and contemporary events, presenting a comprehensive but accessible overview of the country from many different angles—coverage that is long overdue. Editor Steven C. Caton has taken care to create a resource that is readily comprehensible to non-specialists such as high school and college students and general readers as well as highly informative for those with previous knowledge about Yemen. His thorough treatment provides synthetic overviews of key topics, discusses and dismisses certain misconceptions about Yemen, offers surprising perspectives on the relatively unknown country, and underscores Yemen's importance to the region and the wider world—both in ancient times and today.

This book was released on 2024-06-22 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: US-Yemeni relations are enveloped in mysteries that have never been fully unraveled. Historically, these relations have fluctuated dramatically-improving momentarily before deteriorating once again. The literature on Yemen-US relations is riddled with inconsistencies and rarely delves deep into the dynamics at the core of this relationship, often overlooking the underlying complexities. This book addresses these key issues by exploring the myriad dynamics that drive bilateral relations between the two nations. It asserts that Yemen-US relations are governed by a complex array of factors, broadly categorized as external and internal. These dynamics are fluid, shifting with the ever-changing global environment and circumstances, making each stage of the relationship distinct from the next. Through a detailed analysis, this book offers a new interpretation of the systematic changes in Yemen-US relations and their future prospects. It highlights the wide range of dynamics-characterized by their plurality, overlap, and dual influence-that contribute to the instability and oscillation defining this relationship.Externally, factors such as regional geo-strategic considerations and the legacies of the Cold War, alongside the democratization and human rights agenda in the new international order, have predominantly shaped the relations. Conversely, the influence of internal factors was traditionally marginal due to weak mutual interests, but this changed dramatically after the September 11 attacks. The escalating threats to homeland security posed by terrorist groups in both nations brought a new dimension to the relationship.Internal dynamics, such as Yemen's conflict with al-Qaeda, its economic and developmental needs, and the country's overall instability, were significant in shaping the bilateral relations during the first decade of this century. However, their influence has since evolved, marking a new era in the relationship between Yemen and the US. This book stands out from others discussing the general state of Yemeni and American relations in two key ways. First, it avoids the conventional, chronological approach that often becomes tedious, opting instead for an analytical methodology that interprets changes in relations based on dominant factors. Second, it employs established scientific and methodological approaches from political science and international relations to ensure objectivity and enhance its scholarly integrity.

Download or read book Yemen written by Uzi Rabi and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-12-17 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yemen, tucked into the southwestern corner of the Arabian Peninsula, has often escaped regional and international attention. And yet its history illuminates some of the most important issues at play in the modern Middle East: from Cold War rivalries to the growth of Islamic extremism in the 1990s, and from the rise of 'Al-Qa'ida in the Arabian Peninsula' (AQAP) in the post-9/11 period to Obama-era drone strikes. Uzi Rabi looks at this country and its economic and political history through the prism of state failure. He examines Yemen's trajectory from revolutions and civil war in the 1960s to unification in the 1990s and on to the 2011 uprisings which eventually saw the fall from power of Ali Abdallah Salih in 2012. Covering the twentieth-century history of Yemen from traditional society to a melting-pot of revolutions accompanied by foreign intervention, Uzi Rabi's book offers an analysis of a state that is failing, both in terms of day-to-day functioning, and in terms of offering its citizens a modicum of security. Rabi covers the initial rulers of the country, Imam Yahya and his descendents, who ruled Yemen until 1962. But with the growing influence of Gamal Abd al-Nasser's vision of Arab nationalism, and the defeat the British and their allies in November 1967, the way was paved for the formation of South Yemen: the only declared Marxist regime in the Arab world. Rabi tracks the turbulent political history of the two Yemens, in particular South Yemen, which between 1967 and 1986 saw five presidents come and go, three of whom were ousted by violent means. But with unification came a new set of problems concerning poverty, terrorism and corruption. Rabi's analysis of the political beginnings, rule and eventual downfall of Salih are key to understanding all of these, and how they have contributed to Yemen's current explosive condition. Drawing extensively on Arabic sources, many of which are not available in the English language, Rabi offers important analysis on the volatility of the state in Yemen. Based on freshly examined materials, this book is a vital reference of any examination of the country's twentieth-century history and its impact on the current unstable situation in the wider Middle East.
