Since March 2015, a Saudi-led international coalition of
forces--supported by Britain and the United States--has waged
devastating war in Yemen. Largely ignored by the world's media, the
resulting humanitarian disaster and full-scale famine threatens
millions. Destroying Yemen offers the first in-depth historical
account of the transnational origins of this war, placing it in the
illuminating context of Yemen's relationship with major powers since the
Cold War. Bringing new sources and a deep understanding to bear on
Yemen's profound, unwitting implication in international affairs, this
explosive book ultimately tells an even larger story of today's
political economy of global capitalism, development, and the war on
terror as disparate actors intersect in Arabia.
