| Summary/Abstract |
twentieth century scholars have analyzed the middle east from a number of perspectives ranging from geopolitics, security studies, conflict studies, the Palestine-Israel conflict, fundamentalism (The War on Terror), and in connection with oil (Global political Economy). But it has only been recently that a small number of scholars have begun to research the interface between current trends in the Middle East (and North Africa) and corresponding current challenges that Western Civilization is confronted with.
