Armies of Sand: The Past, Present, and Future of Arab Military Effectiveness
Pollack, Kenneth (Senior Fellow, Senior Fellow, Brookings Institution)
Armies of Sand asks, 'why have Arab militaries fought so poorly in the modern era?' It examines the performance of over two-dozen Arab militaries from 1948 to 2017, and compares them to a half-dozen non-Arab militaries, to conclude that politics, economics, and culture all contributed to the past weakness of Arab armies.
