This is an examination of the political, economic and social
develoment of the Sultanate of Oman from the accession of Sultan
Qaboos b Sa'id Al-Sa'id in a palace coup in 1970 to the
promulgation of the basic law in November 1996. it looks at Oman
within the context of the "rentier" model and argues that the
sultanate diverges markedly from that model as the royal family has
not utilized oil income to consolidate its control over the country
but that, due to the patriarchal tradition of sultantal govenrment
and the historical role of commercial, tribal and religoius elites,
the Al-Sa'id have been forced to share power with those important
elements of society.
