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. 410 0$aContributions to International Relations,$x2731-507X 606 $aInternational relations 606 $aSecurity, International 606 $aPeace 606 $aPolitics and war 606 $aInternational Relations 606 $aInternational Security Studies 606 $aPeace and Conflict Studies 606 $aMilitary and Defence Studies 615 0$aInternational relations. 615 0$aSecurity, International. 615 0$aPeace. 615 0$aPolitics and war. 615 14$aInternational Relations. 615 24$aInternational Security Studies. 615 24$aPeace and Conflict Studies. 615 24$aMilitary and Defence Studies. 676 $a327.1740956 700 $aEslami$b Mohammad$01380506 701 $aGuedes Vieira$b Alena Vysotskaya$01380507 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910736008403321 996 $aThe Arms Race in the Middle East$93421938 997 $aUNINA LEADER 06018nam 22008535 450 001 9910299427803321 005 20200704233239.0 010 $a94-007-5258-X 024 7 $a10.1007/978-94-007-5258-0 035 $a(CKB)3710000000467418 035 $a(EBL)4179156 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001546515 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)16140903 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001546515 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)14796557 035 $a(PQKB)11435046 035 $a(DE-He213)978-94-007-5258-0 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4179156 035 $a(PPN)188461353 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000467418 100 $a20150826d2015 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aBroad Scale Coastal Simulation $eNew Techniques to Understand and Manage Shorelines in the Third Millennium /$fedited by Robert J.

The Simulator provides a framework to analyze long term coastal evolution taking account of all the relevant factors. These include the uncertain future climate and other conditions, such as land use change and allows evaluation of diverse management responses. Coastal zones exemplify the environmental pressures we face: their beauty attracts settlement, they offer potential for diverse economic activities, and they are sensitive natural habitats for important species, as well as providing a range of ecosystem services. They are also extremely vulnerable to the vicissitudes of climate change, which include rising sea levels and changes in extreme events such as storms. With large populations living in coastal and estuarine cities facing the ongoing threat of inundation, coordinated management is essential, especially as coastal zones form a linked system in which piecemeal, uncoordinated management could be counterproductive. The Simulator?s current detailed application to the Norfolk coast goes from global climate modelling and broad socio-economic change to the details of evolving coastal habitats, coastal erosion and coastal flood risk and their societal implications. This framework reflects the work of a multi-disciplinary team of key players who analysed these diverse factors in a coherent and integrated manner. The book offers a compelling synthesis of the lessons learned so far at national and international levels, drawing on the expertise of policy makers as well as respected figures in the field. 410 0$aAdvances in Global Change Research,$x1574-0919 606 $aClimatic changes 606 $aCivil engineering 606 $aCoasts 606 $aComputers 606 $aGeography 606 $aRegional planning 606 $aCity planning 606 $aClimate Change$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U12007 606 $aCivil Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T23004 606 $aCoastal Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G35020 606 $aModels and Principles$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I18016 606 $aGeography, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J00000 606 $aLandscape/Regional and Urban Planning$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J15000 615 0$aClimatic changes. 615 0$aCivil engineering. 615 0$aCoasts. 615 0$aComputers. 615 0$aGeography. 615 0$aRegional planning. 615 0$aCity planning. 615 14$aClimate Change. 615 24$aCivil Engineering. 615 24$aCoastal Sciences. 615 24$aModels and Principles. 615 24$aGeography, general. 615 24$aLandscape/Regional and Urban Planning. 676 $a333.917 702 $aNicholls$b Robert J$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aDawson$b Richard J$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aDay (née Nicholson-Cole)$b Sophie A$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299427803321 996 $aBroad Scale Coastal Simulation$92528639 997 $aUNINA
