This international relations study investigates the underlying causes of the Yemen crisis by analyzing the interactions of global, regional, and local actors. At all phases, GCC member states played a key role, from political negotiations amidst street protests in 2011 to formation of an international military coalition in 2015. Using a multi-actor model, the book shows that various actors, whether state or non-state, foreign or domestic, combined to create a disastrous armed conflict and humanitarian crisis. Yemen's tragedy is often blamed on Saudi Arabia and its rivalry with Iran, which is usually defined in sectarian "Sunni-Shia" terms, yet the book presents a more complex picture of what happened due to involvement by many other foreign actors, such as the UAE, UN, UK, US, EU, Russia, China, Turkey, Oman, Qatar, and African states of the Red Sea and Horn of Africa. Stephen W. Day is Adjunct Professor of International Affairs at Rollins College, and former Visiting Assistant Professor of Middle East Politics at St. Lawrence University and Stetson University, USA. Noel Brehony CMG is Honorary Vice President and former Chair of the British Yemeni Society. He is former President of the British Society for Middle East Studies and former Chair of the Council for British Research in the Levant.
