Item description from seller

290 Seiten. Gutes und sauberes Ex. mit leichten Gebrauchsspuren. EN: Good and clean copy with small signs of wear. - This is the first book to examine the Arab Shi'a community, a group whose identity and problematic relationship with the rest of the Middle East has cut to the heart of the crisis of Arab politics and society. From southern Iraq and along the coast of the Persian Gulf, the Arab Shi'a are concentrated in the strategic Gulf region; they form majorities in Iraq and Bahrain and they are the largest religious group in Lebanon. Historically there have been major tensions between the Shi'a and Sunni communities. This book, based on extensive field interviews, examines the nature of Shi'ite belief and community life, contemporary political and social problems, key grievances, and the nature of their relationship with the dominant Sunni state today as they seek a major voice in a new political order. Political and social integration of the Shi'a is key to orderly political evolution in the Gulf in the next century. / The Shi'a Identity -- The Arab Shi'a in the Sunni State -- Shi'ite Demands and Strategies -- The Iranian Connection -- The Shi'a of Iraq -- The Shi'a of Bahrain -- The Shi'a of Kuwait -- The Shi'a of Saudi Arabia -- The Shi'a of Lebanon -- The Shi'a and The West -- Conclusions -- ISBN 9780312221782 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 531.…
