Due to its unique geopolitical, geoeconomic and geostrategic features, the Middle East region has been confronted with challenging security issues. Combined with a lack of an efficient regional security regime this has led to the formation of a full-fledged arms race. This book draws together contributions from international experts to address the factors that have been contributing to the ongoing formation of an arms race in the Middle East as well as the impact of this phenomenon on the regional and global security environment. The book is organized in three sections. The first section outlines the contemporary dynamics of the arms race in the Middle East by focusing on its most recent dynamics and their implications for regional and international security. The second section conducts systematic analysis of case studies of country-specific drivers of the arms race. The third and final section examines the role of external actors in the arms race, evaluating both the responses of regional actors to external interventions as well as the implications of the arms race for extra-regional countries. 001472366 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001472366 650_0 $$aArms race$$zMiddle East. 001472366 651_0 $$aMiddle East$$xMilitary policy. 001472366 651_0 $$aMiddle East$$xStrategic aspects. 001472366 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001472366 7001_ $$aEslami, Mohammad,$$eeditor. 001472366 7001_ $$aGuedes Vieira, Alena Vysotskaya,$$eeditor. 001472366 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tARMS RACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST.$$d[Place of publication not identified] : SPRINGER INTERNATIONAL PU, 2023$$z3031324315$$w(OCoLC)1374815706 001472366 830_0 $$aContributions to international relations. 001472366 852__ $$bebk 001472366 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-32432-1$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001472366 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1472366$$pGLOBAL_SET 001472366 980__ $$aBIB 001472366 980__ $$aEBOOK 001472366 982__ $$aEbook 001472366 983__ $$aOnline 001472366 994__ $$a92$$bISE
