Summary:

In Reawakening: The New, Broader Middle East, Jerry Rosenberg proposes a practical set of models and flow-charts for a reinvented Marshall Plan of the region's twenty-eight nations. Following a detailed review of the 1948 European, Recovery Program (the Marshall Plan), Rosenberg illustrates the similarities and differences between a post-World War II rebuilding and reconstruction effort in the Middle East. He concentrates on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and Iraq. As with the original Marshall Plan, Reawakening focuses on regional economic integration, suggested institutions and forms of governance, so that a more stable and prosperous Middle East can be developed.
