Instead of duplicating the media coverage of recent serious challenges to Yemen’s national leadership in different parts of the country, this article draws on the best social science studies to help explain some of the forces behind Yemen’s chronic instability, as well as to suggest what policies, programs, and management approaches might be most successful in moving the country and its growing population toward a more promising future. A state-of-knowledge review of the dated and geographically-limited literature conducted primarily by foreign social scientists covers national trends, the spatial distribution of Yemeni socioeconomic and political life (including tribes), non-tribal governance, and Yemen’s social research infrastructure. The relevance of this research to two current American assistance programs in Yemen is also suggested
