The Al-Houthi Movement in Yemen. A Social Movement Approach

More about the book

The thesis explores the complexities of the Yemeni civil war, often overshadowed by the Syrian crisis and mischaracterized in Western media as merely a proxy conflict between Saudi Arabia and Iran. It highlights the significant role of the al-Houthi movement, a key player in the conflict, emphasizing that the humanitarian crisis in Yemen is multifaceted and far from simplistic. The work critiques the lack of media attention and understanding surrounding the war, which the UN has labeled as one of the worst humanitarian crises of our time.
