The Pivotal States Project is a series of books focusing on key or "pivotal" states in the Muslim world: Egypt, Indonesia, Iran, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia. By virtue of their influence in regional political, economic, and cultural networks, these states can play a critical role not only in the resolution of conflicts in their immediate vicinity, but also in moderating future relations between the Muslim and non-Muslim worlds. |
