| Description | In the years after the Arab uprisings, the rivalry between Sunni and Shi'a has become increasing viewed as the source of all geopolitical uncertainty that has characterized the region. Underpinned by the rivalry between Saudi Arabia and Iran, this view suggests that religious identities have been mobilized as part of a broader theological struggle. In contrast, this chapter refutes such claims, instead, placing them within political and social contexts. Book Name: Routledge Handbook on Middle East Security |
