The volume begins its examination of Ottoman rule in the Arabian Peninsula, exploring other dimensions of the region's history up until and after independence in 1970. Featuring scholars from a range of disciplines, the book demonstrates how the Persian Gulf's current, complex politics is a product of interwoven dynamics rooted in historical developments and memories, profound social, cultural, and economic changes underway since the 1980s and the 1990s, and inter-state and international relations among both regional actors and between them and the rest of the world. The book is comprised of a total of 36 individual chapters divided into the following six sections: Historical Context, Society and Culture, Economic Development, Domestic Politics, Regional Security Dynamics, The Persian Gulf and the World. Examining the Persian Gulf's increasing importance in regional politics, diplomacy, economics, and security issues, the volume is a valuable resource for scholars, students, and policymakers interested in political science, history, Gulf studies, and the Middle East"--Provided by publisher.Security, InternationalPersian Gulf RegionPersian Gulf RegionPolitics and governmentPersian Gulf RegionHistorySecurity, International953Kamrava Mehran1964-OCoLC-POCoLC-PBOOK9910794045203321Routledge handbook of Persian Gulf politics3784314UNINA
