Coda; Sabah Alnasseri.This edited volume brings together global perspectives on twenty-first century Arab revolutions to theoretically and methodologically link these contemporary uprisings to resistance and protest movements worldwide, above all in the Americas. In their analyses of these transformations, the international contributors engage in an exploration of a variety of themes such as social movements and cultures of resistance, geopolitical economics, civic virtue, identity building, human rights, and foreign economic and political influence. What is the historical significance of these revolutions? What are the implications beyond the Middle East? And how are struggles in other regions of the world being influenced by these events? These heretofore largely unanswered questions are addressed in this collection, developed from presentations at a 2013 international conference on the “Arab Revolutions and Beyond” at York University, Toronto, Canada.International relationsPeaceEthnologyMiddle East Economic policyPolitical scienceInternational Relationshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912000Conflict Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912060Middle Eastern Culturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411110Economic Policyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34010Middle Eastern Politicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911160Political Sciencehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911000Middle EastPolitics and governmentInternational relations.Peace.EthnologyEconomic policy.Political science.International Relations.Conflict Studies.Middle Eastern Culture.Economic Policy.Middle Eastern Politics.Political Science.303.40956Alnasseri Sabahedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910255316103321Arab Revolutions and Beyond2517518UNINA
