{"product_id":"remaking-the-middle-east-anthony-bulbalo-9780143791874","title":"Remaking the Middle East: A Lowy Institute Paper","description":"Not since the collapse of the Ottoman Empire has the Middle East been convulsed by so many events in such a short period of time. Uprisings, coups, and wars have seen governments overthrown, hundreds of thousands killed, and millions displaced. Parts of the region have become ungoverned or ungovernable. Refugees and terrorists have become the Middle East's most noteworthy exports. In \u003ci\u003eRemaking the Middle East\u003c\/i\u003e, Anthony Bubalo argues that the current turmoil is the result of the irrevocable decay of the nizam--the system by which most states in the modern region are ruled. But if you look hard enough, it is possible to spot \"green shoots\" of change that could remake the Middle East in ways that are more inclusive, more democratic, less corrupt, and less violent. Such an outcome is not inevitable, but with so much commentary focused on what is going wrong in the region, it is also important to identify what may well go right.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anthony Bulbalo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0143791877\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780143791874\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Au\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.10h x 4.30w x 0.70d","brand":"Anthony Bulbalo","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44076429410559,"sku":"9780143791874","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e8005553-36db-446c-8d31-f3cd74472b14.jpg?v=1685464940","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/remaking-the-middle-east-anthony-bulbalo-9780143791874","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
