Description

Yemen Endures Civil War, Saudi Adventurism and the Future of Arabia by Ginny Hill is a revealing portrait of modern Yemen. The country's recent history is dominated by the enduring influence of Ali Abdullah Saleh, who ruled for three decades before being forced out by street protests in 2011. Saleh's patronage networks kept the state weak, allowing conflict, social inequality and terrorism to flourish. In the chaos that followed his departure, civil war and regional interference plagued the country, while separatist groups, Al-Qaeda and ISIS competed to exploit the broken state. Yet, Yemen endures. This book delves into the complexities of Yemen's recent past, exploring the factors that have contributed to its ongoing instability.
