In recent years, we have witnessed huge economic and
socio-political change in the Gulf. This book examines the rapid
industrialization of the region and how local economies are
starting to diversify away from petroleum, exploring how this
transformative process is starting to impact on the region's
economy and social make-up. With contributions from some of the top
scholars and practitioners in the area, this book discusses crucial
topics related to the region's transformation, from issues of
economic development and relations with Iran to foreign labour and
women's education and work outside the home. Chapters explore how
in addition to the massive growth in investments and products such
as oil, gas, chemicals, metals, and cement, this growth has
triggered numerous societal changes, such as labour migration,
educational reforms, declining natality, and shifting gender roles.
Covering in detail a broad range of issues, this book will appeal
not only to Middle East experts, particularly those with an
interest in the Persian Gulf, but also to development experts and
political scientists.
