Reviews

'After years of neglect, the study of civil-military relations in the Middle East has reemerged as an important area of study in the wake of the 2011 Arab uprisings. This book successfully brings together significant theoretical insights about the roles that Arab militaries played in the uprisings alongside an impressive range of case studies. Grounded in a robust theoretical framework, the book offers us a rich trove of empirical data and historical background into what was and continues to be one of the defining dynamics of the Arab Spring uprisings.' - Mehran Kamrava, Georgetown University-Qatar and author of Inside the Arab State
