Focusing on the fundamental reasons underlying the enduring crisis of the Yemeni Civil War, this comprehensive book frames contemporary Yemen and assesses prospects beyond the conflict. It identifies the factors that will shape its future internal and international characteristics. Drawing on Helen Lackner's profound expertise in Yemen, the volume delves into Yemeni history and state formation, examining the main political institutions that have emerged since the Republic of Yemen's establishment and their role in the war. It also explores the significance of current fragmentation and the challenges it poses.

The volume further discusses climate change, particularly the issue of water scarcity, in the context of resource constraints to economic development and the role of migration. Rural and urban life, as well as the impact of international development and humanitarian aid, are explored in depth. Additionally, the book examines Yemen's international relations, including its interactions with its neighbors and Western states. Looking forward, it suggests the types of policies that can provide Yemenis with the conditions needed for a reasonable standard of living.

This book will appeal to a wide range of readers, including politicians, diplomats, humanitarian organizations, security analysts, researchers on the Middle East, and those generally interested in Yemen. It will also serve as an essential text for students of international relations, political economy, failing states, development studies, and contemporary Middle Eastern history. By analyzing the determining events, the book offers valuable insights into the complex dynamics of the Yemeni Civil War and its implications for the region and the world.
