On May 22, 1990, a long -standing Yemeni national dream became a reality when North and South Yemen were united in the Republic of Yemen. The process of political integration was violently disrupted four years later, however, and civil war broke out. This book is an examination of the 1994 civil war by five international area experts.
The events leading to the comflict are viewed from both Northern and Southern perspectives. The inherent tensions in wedding a socialist society with a traditional, tribal-dominated one are analyzed in an attempt to discover the extent to which each of the contending parties attempted to impose its view of the world on the other. The South's fear of Islamic fundamentalism emanating from the North is contrasted with Northern concerns of a Southern push to advance social progress at the expense of traditionalism.
A major chapter focuses on the tribes and tribal organizations in the contemporary political development of Yemen. Tribalism as a system-and whether it played a role in the 1994 civil war-is also discussed in detail.The regional implications of the civil war are then examined. In assessing the consequences for the Arabian peninsula, particular attention is paid to Yemen's capacity to influence events in the region, its relationship with Saudi Arabia and the other Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states and the functioning of a balance-of-power system in the area.
The potential for large oil discoveries and the fear of spillover effects from attempts at democratization are all sources of instability for Yemen's internal comdition as well as for its regional neighbors. Finally, the issue of de-linking Saudi-Yemeni tensions from GCC politics is addressed to determine whether countries such as Iraq and Iran could play the 'Yemeni card' to erode GCC unity.
