Introduction : global perspectives and regional realities / Leonard Binder -- The "uncanny" writ regional : new and recurring forms of poverty and inequality in the Arab world/ Kiren Aziz Chaudhry -- Illicit economies and reconstruction in Iraq, Palestine, and Algeria / Bradford Dillman -- Complex consequences : hydrocarbon production as a route to economic health/ Mary Ann Tâetreault --Rebuilding without resolution : the Lebanese economy and state in the post-civil war period / SamirMakdisi -- War-torn or systemically distorted? : rebuilding the Algerian economy/ Miriam R. Lowi --No quick fix : foreign aid and state performance in Yemen / Sheila Carapico -- A millenium development goals-based strategy for rebuilding the postconflict Sudanese economy/ Ibrahim Ahmed Elbadawi -- Afghanistan : rebuilding and transforming a devastated economy / Marvin G Weinbaum -- Coalition economic policies in Iraq :motivations and outcomes / Bassam Yousif -- Bibliography -- Index.

This book analyzes the political obstacles to the adoption of classic strategies of economic recovery and development, as well as the economic consequences of democratic political reforms. The case studies demonstrate that both ?rentierism? and the ?democracy deficit? result from a means-end problem rather than an ideological problem. The contributors focus on the role of the challenged rulers of shaky states where economic devastation has been the consequence of civil strife, often aidedand abetted by external influences. But, if there can be no successful rebuilding of devastated economies, without some significant regime change, we seem to be asking these governments to put themselves out of business.
