Conspiracy Theories in the Arab World

Sources and Politics

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Conspiracism, while not unique to the Middle East, is a salient feature of the political discourses of the region. This book discounts the common pathological explanation for conspiricism and instead investigates the political structures and dynamics that have created and shaped the phenomenon of conspiricism in the contemporary Middle East.
