His leadership spanned wars\, political crises\, shifting alliances and major transformations in the strategic landscape of the Middle East. \nThis webinar will explore King Hussein’s leadership\, military strategy and statecraft\, examining the role these played in shaping modern Jordan and in securing the Kingdom’s position within an often volatile regional environment. \nDrawing on military history and the study of modern Middle Eastern politics\, Dr Vincent Arbaretier will consider King Hussein not only as a political leader\, but also as a military strategist whose decisions were shaped by Jordan’s geographic position\, security constraints and relations with neighbouring states and international powers. \nThe discussion will examine the interaction between leadership\, military strategy and diplomacy throughout King Hussein’s reign\, considering how Jordan navigated periods of regional conflict\, domestic pressure and changing geopolitical alignments. \nThe webinar will also consider King Hussein’s wider contribution to the development and consolidation of the modern Jordanian state\, offering historical perspectives on the strategic choices that shaped Jordan’s political and security trajectory during the second half of the twentieth century. \n\nClick here to register\n \nClick below for more information and to download the poster: \n\nKing Hussein of Jordan (1952–1999): Leadership\, Strategy and the Making of a Modern State
