Review of ROMERO MOÑIVAS, Jesús, El Tapiz de Oriente Medio, Geopolítica. Poder. Religión, Ecúmene Ediciones, Sevilla, 2019, 434 pp.

Abstract

The reviewed work written by Jesús Romero Moñivas, tries to be, in his own words, —an analysis of geopolitics, power and religion in the Middle East, using systematization in fundamental keys from the use of secondary sources as a method—. This fact is not only a statement of intent but a reality that permeates the entire work in the form of an original tapestry-shaped structure. An arrangement that makes reading vivid and goes beyond canonical manuals on the Middle East that almost seem like a copy with a different cover.
