Introduction -- The historical legacy: the rise and fall of the Golden Era -- Double diplomacy and betrayal -- The Arab defeat -- The Six-Day War and its consequences -- The Iranian Revolution and its aftershock -- A new strategic context in the Middle East -- September 11 and after -- Implications for a potential seventh critical turning point, 2011-15.

This book takes a refreshing look at the modern Middle East through the prisms of six cascading negative critical turning points. It identifies the seeds of a potential seventh generated by poor governance paradigms and exacerbated by geopolitical competition for the region's natural resources. The authors argue that this problem can only be effectively addressed through the development of endogenous good governance paradigms that are culturally appropriate, affordable and acceptable to the people of the Middle East, while meeting certain minimal criteria that ensure global moral and political cooperation. They conclude by proposing a set of recommendations designed to promote stability and security in the region and to enable its true potential as a vibrant, tolerant and innovative region to be realized.
