Sean Yom: Jordan, Gebunden

Klappentext

In Jordan, Sean Yom provides a concise yet authoritative synthesis of the country from its founding over a century ago to the present. He explores Jordan's government, society, economy, and foreign policy in a systematic manner, offering an immersive tour of this underappreciated but vital Arab country. Uniquely, Yom combines theoretical work from political science, sociology, and other scholarly fields with firsthand knowledge of Jordan garnered over decades of study to guide readers towards the most important insights. This book underscores the urgency of grasping contemporary Jordanian affairs and shows why the ways opposition and uprisings unfold within its borders will likewise shape the future of democracy in the Arab world.
