Description - The Arab World by Allan M. Findlay

Following the Gulf War, and the need to satisfy both rising economic aspirations and the Islamic values of the region's peoples, this work re-examines 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.
