King Hussein I  

Definition

  • King Hussein bin Talal was one of few contemporary Arab leaders to effectively harness media communication to promote Jordan's moderate political views on local and international fronts. During its 46-year period, King Hussein's reign was marked by numerous abortive coups, assassination attempts, and military conflicts in Jordan as well as in neighboring countries.
