Yemen Will Not Be Overwhelmed by History With Isa Blumi (audio version)

This is an audio version of a recently published video episode

As many have been closely following the unfolding events in Yemen in recent weeks, we were able to catch up with Isa Blumi, author of Destroying Yemen: What Chaos in Arabia Tells Us about the World. We discussed aspects of Yemeni history which are important to understanding the development of anti-imperialist and anti-systemic forces in the region.

Isa Blumi is Professor at Stockholm University within the Department of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies. He is the author of multiple books, including Ottoman Refugees, 1878–1939, Foundations of Modernity, Reinstating the Ottomans, and Destroying Yemen: What Chaos in Arabia Tells Us about the World
