Hardback. Condition: New. The Al Khalifa of Bahrain is a long-standing dynasty that has established dispute resolution measures to overcome intra-tribal ambitions for power and wealth, replacing extra-constitutional rulership succession with primogeniture. Since their control over Bahrain began in 1783 until the British withdrawal from the Gulf in 1971, the Al Khalifa introduced ten senior ruling shaykhs, seven of whom experienced turbulent successions, and faced in-house rivalries and power-seeking disputes. This book provides valuable insights into how the Al Khalifa tribe managed to shape and maintain their patrimonial rule for over 240 years, ultimately emerging as one of the most prevailing and enduring royal families in the region today. It delves into their strategies and tactics for overcoming local contexts, external challenges, and intra-tribal rivalries. The book is an essential read for anyone interested in the history and politics of Bahrain and the Gulf region.

Soft cover. Condition: Good. A rare and valuable insight into the dynamic characteristics of Abu Dhabi and the priorities of its rulers in the early stages of its development. Original yellow printed wraps 21x28cm. (2)pp title and dedication; (1)pp colour portrait of President Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahayan; (2)pp full-page colour coded zonal maps of Abu Dhabi; (2)pp Contents and Abbreviations; (8)pp opening statements; 236pp statistical tables + (18)pp full-page colour charts; with (1)pp Correction Sheet laid in. Texts, tables and charts in English and Arabic, maps in Arabic only. Good, torn to spine head with minor loss, the interiors faintly water stained to lower corner and fore-edge. Dated July 1980 to the Preface, this presents information up to 1979. The Introduction identifies this as the 8th Yearbook in the series (entries on Worldcat and Library Hub record the series beginning in 1969, with no issues published for 1970-72). The opening statements are by the Department of Planning's Chair Seif Bin Mohamed Al Nahayan, and its Statistical Section Director Matar Ahmed Abdullah, with key findings from the data given by Statistical Expert Mohamed K. Rihan. The tables present highly detailed information on climate, society and population, production, trade and distribution, and national accounts. Selecting a few highlights, Rihan notes that population grew by 64% during 1975-9 to 347,092. Nationals accounted for only barely a third of new births in the Abu Dhabi Area (35%) compared with 57% in Al Ain. Health services increased regularly but unevenly across both Areas. Educational facilities grew rapidly, with nationals by far the majority at UAE University for example. The number of hotels and beds increased. In support of efforts to diversify the economy, the number of farms, livestock, and value of fish production increased, as did the number of oil wells, production and exports. Cement manufacturing began in 1979. Electricity consumption increased in both Areas at rates exceeding the increases in production. More building and construction licenses were issued. Imports and exports increased over the year. This appears to be rare, with various editions listed on Worldcat and Library Hub.
