Challenges for America in the Middle East

About this book

Challenges for America in the Middle EastĀ offers a comprehensive and contemporary analysis of the foreign policy challenges the United States faces in the Middle East. Ā It takes a close look at the critical policy dilemmas posed by radical Islam, the Arab Spring, the Shia Crescent, and IsraelĀ­ā€“Palestine relations. Authors Richard W. Mansbach and Kirsten L. Taylor examine the issues from a historical perspective and in the context of the current state of affairs, and analyze options for future action. Throughout the text, they emphasize the interplay of foreign and domestic issues in the United States and overseas, and show how that interplay shapes American policy towards the region.
