The UAE Geopolitics, Modernity and Tradition

The UAE Geopolitics, Modernity and Tradition
William Gueraiche, "The UAE: Geopolitics, Modernity and Tradition "
English | ISBN: 1784539309 | 2017 | 288 pages | EPUB | 1250 KB
William Gueraiche's work is the first scholarly study of the UAE's campaign to establish itself on the international stage and to explore the impact that its economic transformation has had on the country. Emirati society remains at core conservative and the preservation of Arab-Islamic identity remains important, yet the UAE has the highest proportion of foreigners of any country in the world. What does this mean for the identity of Emiratis living there and what are the implications for foreigners working there? The author also explores the environmental costs of the Dubai lifestyle, its 'Look East' policy and increasing volume of trade with eastern Asia, and the ways in which the UAE has sought to challenge the traditional hegemony of Saudi Arabia in the region. In a final chapter the author examines the impact of the economic depression that called the whole representation of Dubai into question.

The Struggle for Inclusion Muslim Minorities and the Democratic Ethos

The Struggle for Inclusion Muslim Minorities and the Democratic Ethos
Paul M. Sniderman, "The Struggle for Inclusion: Muslim Minorities and the Democratic Ethos"
English | ISBN: 022680741X | 2022 | 213 pages | EPUB | 1258 KB
The politics of inclusion is about more than hate, exclusion, and discrimination. It is a window into the moral character of contemporary liberal democracies. The Struggle for Inclusion introduces a new method to the study of public opinion: to probe, step by step, how far non-Muslim majorities are willing to be inclusive, where they draw the line, and why they draw it there and not elsewhere. Those committed to liberal democratic values and their concerns are the focus, not those advocating exclusion and intolerance.
