Crisis in the Yemeni Economy: A Troubled Transition to Post-Hydrocarbon Growth
The Middle East Institute is proud to host MEI scholar Dr. Charles Schmitz for a discussion of his recent MEI policy paper entitled “Crisis in the Yemeni Economy: A Troubled Transition to Post-Hydrocarbon Growth.” Yemen has embarked on the arduous road to political reconciliation, but the economy remains a major challenge that contributes to all of Yemen’s crises. Professor Schmitz will examine the economic issues facing the new government and the possible outlines of the economy in the post-hydrocarbon era.
In the June 2011 Bulletin, Dr. Michael Ryan discusses the implications of bin Ladin’s death for the remainder of the al-Qa’ida network. It also introduces new MEI scholars Dr. Daniel Serwer, who is interviewed on his career in technology and peacebuilding, and Dr. Charles Schmitz, who speaks about his work on Yemen.
