Development Issues in the Arab World

Findlay, Allan M.

9780415042000 - Development Issues in the Arab World
Secondhand

Article description

Disruption following the Gulf War, and the need to satisfy both rising economic aspirations and the Islamic values of the regions peoples, demands fresh examination of development issues in the Arab world. This introductory text assesses how agricultural, industrial and urban development has evolved in the Arab region. Contrasting Arab and Western interpretations of development, it draws on case studies covering states as diverse as Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Morocco and Jordan. The author suggests that until the Arabs define their own identity, there will continue to be change but not necessarily progress in the region.
