Sinopse
Características

Kuwait, unlike most of its neighbours, has a well-established national identity and a long history as a nation, dating back to the eighteenth century. In this book, first published in 1992, Dr. Jill Crystal focuses on two recurring themes in Kuwaiti history: one, the preservation of a sense of community in the face of radical economic, social and political transformations; the second, internal rivalry over the conventions governing relations among members of the community. Crystal skilfully weaves these themes into a broad profile of Kuwait, analysing the nations transformation from a pre-oil to an oil economy; its social structure and composition, including the countrys tribal roots and key divisions involving class, gender and immigrant labour; political tensions resulting from the nations sudden wealth and the accompanying changes in social structure; and its relations with other countries in the Gulf and the Middle East.
