- Summary
- "Praise for Adam Hanieh's Capitalism and Class in the Gulf Arab States:"The first work to be published in English that gives a full understanding of the formation and development of the Gulf capitalist class."-Counterfire In this illuminating and original work, Adam Hanieh demonstrates that the Arab Spring rebellions are about much more than democracy.

He is the author of Capitalism and Class in the Gulf Arab States. "--
