Minorities and the State in the Arab World

edited by Ofra Bengio and Gabriel Ben-Dor

Bengio

Questions of identity and ethnicity have always been part of the intricate web of politics in the Arab world, but the recent expansion of political participation has made these issues more political, more visible, and more acute. This book offers a comprehensive discussion of minorities and ethnic politics in eight Arab countries. Focusing on the strategic political choices made by minorities, majorities, and regimes in power, the authors also point to probable future developments in majority-minority relations in the region.
