|aShortly after the Gulf War of 1990-91, Yemeni President Ali AbdullahSaleh met with the Iraqi Vice President and his envoy. President Salehrecommended that the smartest thing for President Saddam Hussein to doto recover from the damage to himself caused by the war was to democratise Iraq. President Saleh came to power thirteen years before offeringthis advice, presided over the creation of anew constitution that declared Yemen a democracy that same year, and fifteen years later was elected to rule for a further seven years. This study examines the nature of changes to Yemen's power structures, political dynamics and institutions since the intention to democratise was announced in 1990.
