Description and Table of Contents
Description
The end of the Cold War and collapse of the Soviet Union have fundamentally altered Middlle East politics, producing a new fludity in the region, new diplomatic alignments and new opportunities for peace. Contributors analyze the evolution of Moscow's policy toward the Arab states, Israel, the PLO and the UN. They examine the implications of the emergence of Islamic fundamentalism in the new Central Asian states and discuss the transfer of military technology from the former Soviet republics.
