Part I analyses the social, political, and economic change that has been taking place throughout the region since the early nineteenth century. It also looks at the four principal political movements that have accompanied this change: liberal democracy, Islamic fundamentalism, socialism, and Marxism. Part II covers in detail the politics of five representative Middle Eastern nations: Lebanon, Israel, Turkey, Egypt, and Iran. A thorough analysis of the social and political forces at work in the region, this book illuminates the often mystifying day-to-day events covered by TV and the press.
