Global Security Watchâ "Lebanon: A Reference Handbook
No Customer Reviews
A comprehensive examination of the complex domestic environment and the quarrelsome neighbors that contribute to Lebanon's condition as one of the most violent and unstable countries in the Middle East.
Global Security Watch--Lebanon is the first volume to consider all factors--political, economic, religious, and actions by its neighbors--that have contributed to Lebanon's violent past and that shape its current security status. In Global Security Watch--Lebanon, author David Sorenson explores Lebanon's arcane--almost dysfunctional--political structure and economic system, as well as the complex religious makeup of a country that is home to Christians, Jews, and Arabs with no majority faith. Sorenson also looks at how the nation has often served as a focal point of diplomatic and military conflict for other nations, including Syria, Iran, and Israel, as well as how ill-informed American policies toward Lebanon have ultimately harmed American strategic interests in the Middle East.Format:Hardcover
