Whilst some regimes were able to withstand these challenges through recourse to coercive strategies, others were toppled. This book questions why some regimes fell whilst others were able to survive. It argues that this was a direct consequence of state building processes and the cultivation of particular relationships between rulers and ruled. One of the consequences of such efforts is the transformation of regional politics along increasingly 'sectarianized' lines to devastating effect. This book offers a timely and unique approach to linking the events of the Arab Uprisings and on-going conflict across the region through exploring the marginalization and manipulation of identities across the Middle East. 410 0$aIdentities and geopolitics in the Middle East. 606 $aPolitical violence$zMiddle East 606 $aArab spring, 2010- 606 $aPower (Social sciences)$zMiddle East 607 $aMiddle East$xPolitics and government$y1979- 610 $aPolitical Science 610 $aWorld 610 $aMiddle Eastern 615 0$aPolitical violence 615 0$aArab spring, 2010- 615 0$aPower (Social sciences) 676 $a303.48330956 700 $aMabon$b Simon$0762164 801 0$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996552350303316 996 $aHouses built on sand$92105955 997 $aUNISA
