Adopting a neo - Ottomanist framework and using the latest scholarship on the Middle East the author traces the historical development of the current crisis to the First World War when the West instigated invasions coup d tats civil and proxy wars. It is argued that Western powers have facilitated the dispossession of the Arab people in their overarching aim to gain control of the oil fields. A range of historical case - studies are provided as evidence from the Balfour Declaration and the Sykes - Picot Agreement to the creation of Israel and the displacement of Islamic refugees. Individual nations are also analysed including Iran Saudi Arabia Iraq Syria Libya and Egypt. Ultimately the author suggests that artificial countries and unsustainable frontiers are the root causes of the Islamic crisis. However a realistic (and long - term) solution may lie in the evolution of a new Silk Route Economy. This book will appeal to graduate - level students in political economy area studies international affairs and Middle East studies generally.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Islamic Identity And Development After The Ottomans The Arab Middle East\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Mehmet Ozay (Carleton University Canada)\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Taylor \u0026amp; Francis Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9781032215693\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 288 Pages, 12 Tables, Black And White\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 3\/31\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\nSeries: Routledge Studies in Middle Eastern Politics\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Politics \u0026amp; Government","brand":"Mehmet Ozay (Carleton University Canada)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49599737135409,"sku":"IN-G-9781032215693","price":50.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9781032215693.jpg?v=1724588986","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9781032215693-islamic-identity-and-development-after-the-ottomans-the-arab-middle-east","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
