Description
Hezbollah: A Short History, updated and expanded to its third edition, offers a comprehensive and balanced analysis of the complex and multifaceted nature of this influential Middle Eastern organisation. The group's evolution from a militia to a hybrid entity providing social services and public works has enabled it to maintain a significant presence in the region. Despite being labelled a terrorist organisation by some, its durability and resilient popular support make it a force to be reckoned with. This updated edition provides a timely and informed assessment of Hezbollah's recent activities, including its involvement in the Syrian civil war, and offers a nuanced understanding of the organisation's role in the Middle East.
