Focusing on the struggles of youth in the Arabian Gulf to find
their place in their encounters with modernity, Everyday Youth
Cultures in the Gulf Peninsula explores how global forces are
reshaping everyday cultural experiences in authoritarian societies.
A deeper understanding of Gulf youth emerges from reading about the
everyday lives and struggles, opportunities, and contributions of
youth who, in the process of developing their personal identities,
are also incrementally transforming their societies and cultures.
Based on ethnographic fieldwork in Kuwait, Oman, Saudi Arabia, the
UAE, and Qatar, the chapters bring fresh insight into Gulf youth
microcultures from the ground and invite dialogue by engaging young
local and foreign academics in the discussion. In light of the
general difficulties of accessing Gulf societies, the book's
nuanced, richly detailed depictions of everyday life can be of
interest to academic research in Middle East studies, youth
sociology, political science and anthropology, as well as to
business and governmental decision-making.
