This study provides a comprehensive analysis of state-society
development in the most volatile region of the world. In the Middle
East, various anti-systemic movement and radical Islam often
clashed and resisted the political, cultural, economic, and
military domination of the region by the world's major imperial
powers. Emadi investigates state, revolution, and development in
the Middle Eastern states of Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, and Syria in
the immediate post-World War II period. Maintaining that the state
is an instrument of class domination, exhibiting a certain degree
of autonomy in the creation and design of domestic development
programs, he details the role of class in an attempt to provide a
better understanding of the diverse factors at work. Politics of
the Dispossessed provides an alternative analysis of development in
regional politics and its context in world politics, aspects that
are generally neglected by most mainstream studies. It examines
state formation, internal development strategies, and how class
conflict and ideology led to class alliance on an international
basis, as well as the external interference in the internal affairs
of these societies. It also explores the process of political and
ethnic integration of the Middle East into the global economic
system and the resulting counter-strategies of the nationalist and
Islamic resistance to the increasing superpower domination of the
international system.
