Produktbeschreibung

The Oxford Handbook of the Sociology of the Middle East integrates the study of the social dynamics in the Middle East within history, culture, and politics. The volume transcends a purely regional perspective to investigate the global nature of these dynamics and their impact on the life of people in the region. It provides a comprehensive perspective in connecting the vexed state-society relations in the region with movements of transformation and the affirmation of rights and creativity in the public arenas.
