Nearly a decade into a devastating conflict, Yemen stands at a crossroads, grappling with destruction, socio-economic decline, and political deadlock. This edited volume provides a comprehensive and insightful exploration of Yemen's current crisis, emphasizing the urgent need for a holistic and forward-looking approach to post-conflict reconstruction and peacebuilding.Yemen at the Crossroads: Crisis and Reconstruction examines the historical roots, geopolitical implications, and local dynamics of Yemen's conflict. Structured into two comprehensive parts, the book first provides a thorough examination of the conflict's evolution and peacemaking processes, and then shifts to envisioning and strategizing for post-conflict recovery and sustainable development. By highlighting the interplay between local political dynamics and international interests, this book enhances our understanding of Yemen's conflict and illuminates potential pathways toward peace and reconstruction.Yemen at the Crossroads: Crisis and Reconstruction is an essential resource for policymakers, scholars, and practitioners involved in conflict resolution and post-conflict reconstruction. It aims to guide efforts toward a resolution that respects the resilience and aspirations of the Yemeni people, fostering a just, inclusive, and sustainable peace.
