The League of Arab States: Debacle of a Regional Arrangement
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 22 May 2009
Extract
In recent discussions of the value of regional arrangements for the maintenance of international peace and security, it is regrettable that little attention has been given to the experience of the League of Arab States.
