AUTHOR
SUMMARY
Disruption following the Gulf War, and the need to satisfy both rising economic aspirations and the Islamic values of the region's peoples, demands fresh examination of 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.Findlay, Allan M. is the author of 'Arab World' with ISBN 9780415042000 and ISBN 0415042003.
