Title: New frontiers in Middle East security
Description: New Frontiers in Middle East Security uses an interdisciplinary approach to chart a new course for national security research and policy making in the turbulent region of the Middle East. Combining the rigor of international relations theory with the depth of area studies scholarship, this book creates a comprehensive understanding of the status of national security in the Middle East.

The essays break new ground by integrating five variables into a new national security paradigm: political legitimacy, ethnic and religious tolerance, economic capabilities, availability of essential natural resources, and military capabilities.
