The Foreign Policies of Arab States: The Challenge of Globalization by Bahgat Korany, Ali E.hillal Dessouki Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description The first edition of The Foreign Policies of Arab States was praised as a milestone for present and future research on Arab and Third World foreign policies (American Political Science Review), and an indispensable aid for those studying or teaching the foreign policies of the contemporary Middle East (International Journal of Middle East Studies). It has become a standard textbook in Middle East Studies curricula all over the world. This third edition, with new material reflecting the earth-shaking events at the end of the Cold War and the continuation of violence and terrorism, examines foreign policies of nine Arab states in the context of globalization. Korany and Dessouki establish an analytical framework for assessing foreign policy in their introductory chapters, which they and other contributors then apply chapter by chapter to Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Sudan, the United Arab Emirates, Algeria, and Iraq. Facing new challenges in the twenty-first century, Arab states must confront problems of identity with the decline of pan-Arabism; attempt to balance economies impacted by sociopolitical turmoil; establish credible foreign policy under occupation or with a seriously fragmented political leadership; and walk the tightrope between a close relationship with the United States and a domestic religious faction that opposes all foreign influence. In their concluding chapter, the editors draw upon the nine cases to demonstrate how these Arab countries manage the pressures of globalization, most notably the increasingly blurred distinction between domestic and foreign policies.

Book arrived today, 2 days before deadline given by the seller. Well-packaged & in good condition. Price was very competitive, & the book was accurately listed. Great communication. I appreciate the seller getting back to me when I was having trouble tracking the book's delivery progress. Apparently there were 2 different tracking numbers - one in Canada & the other in the U.S., since it was initially shipped from Canada. Thank you very much for your quick response & helpful information.
The first item arrived with some damage to the inside back cover, but the seller responded immediately, assuring me they’d provide a replacement, and even told me I could keep the original. They were upfront about a short delay, and gave a clear estimated ship date, and followed up right on time once it shipped. The replacement arrived in perfect condition and exactly as described. I really appreciated their transparency and professionalism. Would definitely buy from them again!
This seller is amazing. The appearance of the books I purchased are exactly as pictured. The quality is brand new and nothing was broken or bent when it arrived. The only issue I had was the wait time. However, the time it took them to actually ship the books was rather quick. They were very polite and answered my questions about the language the books are in and if they were lost in the mail. Shipping was my fault for not understanding processing times to ship to the US.
