Kuwait has among the highest levels of personal incomes in the
Middle East and the best oil reserves to production ratios of all
the exporting states. Its good material fortune is offset by its
political precariousness engendered by Kuwaiti nationals forming a
minority and a heavy dependency on immigrants to sustain the
economy. Deep feelings of insecurity have led to calls in Kuwait
for an end to immigration and the repatriation of foreign residents
of the state. This book, first published in 1985, analyses the
degree of dependency of Kuwait on an alien working population from
the results of a unique survey undertaken among the crucial
family-accompanied segment of the immigrant workforce. The authors
suggest new approaches to the evaluation of the utility of the
foreigners to the local economy that might help to stave off a
mounting internal crisis.
