It explains how the international system and regional core–periphery dynamics shape state behaviour, how identity and sovereignty operate within the regional system, and how foreign policy is made. Comparative foreign policies account for variation, while war and order explore conflict management. A final chapter links the region to globalisation over 1991–2001, supported by references and indices.","The international politics of the Middle East  \nRegional International Politics series
