The book first gives a brief overview of day-to-day life in the Dhofar region of southern Oman, then focuses on how the traits of self-control and self-respect are linked in the everyday actions of several groups of tribes who speak Gibali (Jibbali, also known as Shari/??eret), a non-written, Modern South Arabian language. Although no work can express the totality of a culture, this text describes how Gibalis are constantly shifting between preserving autonomy and signaling membership in family, tribal, and national communities. The work reflects observations and conclusions from over ten years of research into the history and culture of the Dhofar region along with longstanding, deep involvement with both men and women in the Gibali community. 606 $aEthnology 606 $aEthnology$zMiddle East 606 $aCulture 606 $aSociocultural Anthropology 606 $aEthnography 606 $aMiddle Eastern Culture 615 0$aEthnology. 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aCulture. 615 14$aSociocultural Anthropology. 615 24$aEthnography. 615 24$aMiddle Eastern Culture. 676 $a953.53 676 $a953.53 700 $aRisse$b Marielle$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01061569 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910337716203321 996 $aCommunity and Autonomy in Southern Oman$92519238 997 $aUNINA
