1. Yemen In Crisis
The Road to War
A concise account of Yemen’s descent into prolonged conflict that traces the historical, political, economic and social factors behind state collapse and humanitarian catastrophe. It explores the weakening of central authority, the rise of armed groups including the Houthis and southern secessionists, the effects of regional interventions led by Saudi Arabia and its allies, and the dysfunction of international responses. The narrative links chronic governance failures, economic decline and external interference to widespread displacement, famine risk and fragmentation, and stresses the need for an inclusive political settlement and reconstruction.
