About this product
Product Information
Beyond the Arab Cold War brings the Yemen Civil War, 1962-68, to the forefront of modern Middle East History. Yemen was a showcase for a new era of peacekeeping, counterinsurgency, and chemical warfare. This book shows how the Yemen Civil War was not dominated by a single power or rivalry, but rather became an arena for global conflict.

Reviews
"Until the last two decades, much of the scholarship on Yemen has often been characterized by a tendency, whether intentional or not, to emphasize the isolation of the country, its history, and its politics from global processes of imperial expansion, state formation, and capital accumulation'.It is refreshing then to read Asher Orkaby's account of the Yemeni Civil War of 1962-68, which proceeds with the assumption that the war must be understood in a broader context of international relations that can be reduced neither to Cold War rivalries nor to competition between Arab monarchies and their republican rivals'. A well-researched study that pushes us to think more carefully about whether the Yemen Civil War, and possibly any civil war, can be considered solely within a national framework." -- John M. Willis, International Journal of Middle East Studies "Backed by solid research, Orkaby's narrative easily succeeds in taking readers beyond the Arab Cold War and into the machinations of a variety of international players." -- Eric Watkins, International Affairs "Through truly impressive multiarchival and multilingual research (in U.S., British, Canadian, Russian, Israeli, Yemeni, and Swiss collections), Orkaby illuminates several key aspects of the Yemeni conflict that were previously shrouded in official secrecy or historiographical neglect."--Yemeni Thicket, Diplomatic History "Orkaby's book represents an important contribution to both the philatelic and political history of this turbulent part of the world."--Charles Snee, Linn's Stamp News "[P]rovides special significance and important relevance today, half a century later....Recommended."--CHOICE, "Until the last two decades, much of the scholarship on Yemen has often been characterized by a tendency, whether intentional or not, to emphasize the isolation of the country, its history, and its politics from global processes of imperial expansion, state formation, and capital accumulation'.It is refreshing then to read Asher Orkaby's account of the Yemeni Civil War of 1962-68, which proceeds with the assumption that the war must be understood in abroader context of international relations that can be reduced neither to Cold War rivalries nor to competition between Arab monarchies and their republican rivals'.
