Frontmatter -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Map of Jordan -- 1 The Emergence of Modern Jordan -- 2 Political Liberalization and Elections -- 3 Economic Adjustment and Political Stability -- 4 From War to Peace: Jordan’s Changing Foreign Policy -- 5 From Hussein to Abdullah: The Succession -- 6 Jordan’s Continuing Transition -- Bibliography -- Index -- About the Book
Summary: Jordan in Transition offers a cogent and compelling analysis of the country's domestic and international politics. Ryan argues that there have been four dramatic transitions in Jordan's recent past: ambitious economic restructuring, efforts toward political liberalization, realignments in foreign relations (culminating in the 1994 peace agreement with Israel), and the succession of King Abdullah II. Exploring these transitions, and how each in turn affects the others, he provides a major contribution to our understanding of this pivotal country in the Middle East.
