Recent developments in the Middle East and North Africa have radically destabilised the region, which is beset with rising religious and political tensions, sectarian conflict and terrorism. It is a region in crisis and suffering from a paralysis of will. However, it is also vastly rich in culture and geopolitically critical for the stability of the international order. There is an urgent need for an accurate understanding of these complex developments. What does the future hold for this geopolitically critical region?
This essential, multidisciplinary volume presents expert analysis on critical facets of the region, including globalisation, the environment and sustainability, education, nonviolence, human rights, inter-religious coexistence, Islamic social principles and Qur'anic ethics. Leading Middle Eastern and Western scholars offer constructive, long-term solutions to the endemic sociocultural, economic and political issues, requiring a fundamental transformation of the current system of values and patterns of thought.
Enriching our understanding of contemporary MENA affairs, Winds of Change is essential reading for achieving peace, reconciliation, socio-cultural progress and prosperity in the region.
