A Yugoslav Government Disinformation Campaign
Weapons of Mass Destruction and Islam
This is a study of a legal treatise by ʿĀdil ʿAwaḍ, published by Umm al-Qurā University in Mecca, a scholarly attempt to deal with the legality and ethics of Weapons of Mass Destruction (wmd) from the perspective of the šarīʿa. Saudi Arabia offers a relevant real-world case study, given the continuing importance of Islam in its socio-political system and the indications that Riyadh is considering the acquisition of nuclear weapons. ʿAwaḍ addresse…
Saudi Arabia and Nuclear Weapons
Nuclear proliferation in the Middle East remains an issue of concern. Saudi Arabia’s actions will largely rest on Iran’s decisions, and discussions and preparations within Saudi Arabia would suggest that it is ready to react to potential shifts in the region’s nuclear powers. Saudi Arabia and Nuclear Weapons uses an "inside out" approach that emphasises the Saudis’ own national interests in relation to the nuclear threat, and their understanding …
Saudi Arabia and Nuclear Weapons
Did Iraq expect a nuclear Desert Storm? Deterrence, paradigms, and operational culture in a weapons of mass destruction environment
Most of the Iraqi political leadership, military, and public were convinced that there was a strong likelihood the United States would employ nuclear weapons during Desert Storm. This study examines how a combination of existing paradigms, propaganda, military doctrine, and a misunderstanding of US military and political strategy combined to predispose Iraq to expect nuclear escalation, and the impact the perceived threat had on nuclear deterrenc…
Modern Problems
Ottoman Military Administration in Eighteenth-Century Bosnia
This study blends Ottoman and Slavic sources and examines in particular the Bosnian campaigns against the Austrians in 1736, along with the structure, personnel system, and financing of the Bosnian militia. Archival material, chronicles, personal letters and journals and poetry help show how Bosnians and Ottoman officials co-operated to arrive at a shared sense of social order and mutual defence
False Relativism
The Serbo‐Croatian war, 1991
Chemical weapons and the gulf war
Despite a realistic threat that Iraq would use chemical weapons (CW) during the Gulf War, it did not do so. Fear of retaliation was probably a key factor, but battlefield conditions—including the rapid tempo of operations, the destruction of Iraq's delivery systems, and the weather—also may have played a significant part in Baghdad's decisionmaking. There is greater impetus for controls on CWs now. However, Third World states may conclude that it…

Islam and the state in South Yemen
This study will examine the present situation of Islam, the government's religious policy, and its implications for the country's political system and society. Unfortunately, the PDRY remains by and large closed to Western scholars and what we do not know about Islam there far exceeds what we do know, reducing some answers to speculation. Moreover, much of the information we do have on this topic, including on non-regime actors such as religious …
