From the highland imamate to the fall of Sanaa, from civil wars to foreign interventions, Yemen has long resisted governance, yet its strategic position at the Red Sea’s chokepoint makes it impossible to ignore.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn  Yemen Explained , Thomas R. Calder shows why Yemen’s crises are not accidental or temporary. Through centuries of geography, tribal politics, and external interference, Calder traces how weak states, powerful patrons, and ambitious movements like the Houthis have shaped the country into a persistent flashpoint for regional and global powers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis timely analysis reveals the patterns behind the headlines: why past interventions have failed, why internal fragmentation endures, and why Yemen matters to Washington, Riyadh, and beyond.
