The fourth edition of Politics and Society in the Contemporary Middle East—the first under the editorship of Jillian Schwedler and Curtis Ryan—combines the strengths of the lauded previous editions with coverage of new topics and expanded representation from the region.
Reflecting nearly a decade of major developments and including two new chapters (one providing vital geographic context and one on Yemen), this new edition offers both a wealth of current information and insightful, accessible analysis of longer-term political currents and shifting dynamics.
