Politics, the Military and National Security in Jordan, 1955-1967 (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Using new archival material, Lawrence Tal examines how Jordan remained stable during the volatile period between 1955 and 1967. Tal asserts that Jordan's security was due primarily to the cohesion of its National Security Establishment, a ruling coalition of security and foreign policy professionals that included the monarchy, the political elite and the military.
