Past and Future in the Middle East: Seven Years Since 9/11
About this book
The United States' response to the terrible events of September 11, 2001, marked a watershed in American policy toward the Middle East region. Instead of pursuing stability, the country has practiced a strategy of destabilization in the hopes of democratization. What are the results, and what can we expect U.S. policy to be in the new administration?
