Using first-person accounts, as well as scholarly research from the fields of history, anthropology, political science, travel writing and literature, this book gives clear advice for expats wanting to create successful interactions with people from Arabian Peninsula societies. By discussing how the practicalities of work and research intersect with cultural norms, this book fills the gap between tourist guides aimed at the causal tourists and academic texts on narrowly defined topics. Marielle Risse has taught cultural studies, literature and pedagogy for 21 years on the Arabian Peninsula at the American University of Sharjah (UAE), the University of Sharjah-Woman?s (UAE) and Dhofar University (Oman). Her research areas are Arabian Peninsula cultures and intercultural communication. Her work is based on long-term research with local informants and draws on the fields of anthropology, history, political science, sociology, travel writing and urban studies to explain the cultures of the Arabian Peninsula. Her books are Community and Autonomy in Southern Oman (Palgrave Macmillan, 2019), Foodways in Southern Oman (2021) and Houseways in Southern Oman (2023). 606 $aCareer education 606 $aPersonal coaching 606 $aCareer development 606 $aEmigration and immigration$xGovernment policy 606 $aEthnology$zMiddle East 606 $aCulture 606 $aCareer Skills 606 $aCoaching 606 $aCareers in Business and Management 606 $aMigration Policy 606 $aMiddle Eastern Culture 615 0$aCareer education. 615 0$aPersonal coaching. 615 0$aCareer development. 615 0$aEmigration and immigration$xGovernment policy. 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aCulture. 615 14$aCareer Skills. 615 24$aCoaching. 615 24$aCareers in Business and Management. 615 24$aMigration Policy. 615 24$aMiddle Eastern Culture. 676 $a370.113 700 $aRisse$b Marielle$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01061569 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910999688803321 996 $aResearching and Working on the Arabian Peninsula$94375925 997 $aUNINA
