Summary:

In this volume, scholars from around the world bring a range of interdisciplinary perspectives to bear on these topics. Particular attention is focused on the changing regional security environment, underdevelopment as a source of regional insecurity and the impact of regional militarization on Arab society and politics. Throughout, the volume stresses the linkage between 'security' and 'development' in the third world, and the need to expand conceptions of the first to include elements of the latter.
