Articles in this journal were originally written in Arabic for the ACRPS' other peer-reviewed publications journals. These include: Siyasat Arabiya (Political Science), Omran (Sociology), Ostour (Historical Studies), and Tabayyun (Philosophy and Cultural Studies). Studies were chosen for placement in AlMuntaqa based on the whether the research presented original fieldwork, new primary sources, and an in-depth indigenous knowledge of the Arab world. Access to these studies will provide an unprecedented look at the research agenda coming out of the Arab world, as well as advances the goal of cross-regional knowledge accumulation 517 3 $aMuntaqa 517 3 $aMin?aqah 606 $aSocial sciences$vPeriodicals 606 $aHumanities$vPeriodicals 606 $aHumanities$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00963588 606 $aIntellectual life$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00975769 606 $aSocial sciences$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01122877 607 $aQatar$vPeriodicals 607 $aArab countries$xIntellectual life$y21st century$vPeriodicals 607 $aMiddle East$vPeriodicals 607 $aArab countries$2fast 607 $aMiddle East$2fast 607 $aQatar$2fast 608 $aPeriodicals.$2fast 608 $aPeriodicals.$2lcgft 615 0$aSocial sciences 615 0$aHumanities 615 7$aHumanities. 615 7$aIntellectual life. 615 7$aSocial sciences. 676 $a909/.0974927 712 02$aMarkaz al-?Arab? lil-Ab??th wa-Dir?sat al-Siy?s?t (?a??yin, Qatar), 906 $aJOURNAL 912 $a9910622099603321 996 $aAlMuntaqa$92962953 997 $aUNINA
