Is Iran at a crossroads? The recent US - led wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have brought new opportunities and dangers that could conceivably either herald a new rapprochement between Tehran and Washington or else bring a sharp detorioration that might perhaps spill over into confrontation. At home, profound demographic changes would seem to make far-reaching political changes appear inevitable in a country whose young population is alienated from the clerical elite that pulls the strings of power. This book looks at some of the causes of these domestic international tensions and considers some of the possible outcomes. In particular, it asks: Is Iran really on the way to developing nuclear weapons? What is the Iranian ‘Qods Force‘ doing in Iraq and Afghanistan? And why? What are Iran‘s connections with Middle East terror groups? Could Iran disintegrate if the current regime crumbles? How much of a threat to the regime do dissident organisations pose? The book explains the likely course of events in Iran and the region for both general readers and specialists.

paperback. Etat : Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these).

Vendeur : Kloof Booksellers & Scientia Verlag, Amsterdam, Pays-Bas
Etat : very good. London : Zed Books, 2004. Paperback. 240 pp. Library stamp. English text. Condition : very good - Since the occupation of Iraq in early 2003, Iran has become by default the Middle East's last remaining significant power, apart from Israel. Yet, as defense analyst Roger Howard shows, Iran feels deeply insecure. It is in this context that this book explores Irans' weapons, foreign relations with North Korea and China, politics in the region, and more. Given the regional tension and the overt hostility of the United States , this book provides an essential background for understanding the likely course of events in the Middle East. Condition : very good copy. ISBN 9781842774755. Keywords : MIDDLE-EAST, Iran. N° de réf. du vendeur 240927
