The New Arab Wars: Uprisings and Anarchy in the Middle East By Mark Lynch Less than two years after the hope-filled Arab uprisings, the popular movement had morphed into a dystopia of resurgent dictators, failed states and civil wars. Amidst the chaos, a virulently militant group declared an Islamic State, seizing vast territories and inspiring terrorism across the globe. What happened? The New Arab Wars is a profound illumination of the causes of this nightmare. It details the costs of the poor choices made by regional actors, delivers a scathing analysis of Western misreadings of the conflict and condemns international interference that has stoked the violence. Informed by commentators and analysts from the Arab world, Marc Lynch shows that the region's upheavals have only just begun—and that the hopes of Arab regimes and Western policy makers to retreat to old habits of authoritarian stability are doomed to fail. |
