Over the last decade or so, academic and non-academic observers
have focussed mainly, if not exclusively on the institutions and
places of formal power in the Greater Middle East, depicting
politics in the region as a small area limited to local
authoritarian rulers.
In contrast, this book aims to explore the hidden geographies of
power, i.e. the political dynamics developing inside, in parallel
to, and beyond institutional forums; arguing that these hidden
geographies play a crucial role, both in support of and in
opposition to official power. By observing less frequented spaces
of power, co-option, and negotiation, and particularly by focusing
on the interplay between formal and informal power, this
interdisciplinary collection provides new insights in the study of
the intersection between policy-making and practical political
dynamics in the Greater Middle East.
Contributing a fresh perspective to a much-discussed topic,
"Informal Power in the Greater Middle East "will be an invaluable
resource for students, scholars and those interested in the
politics of the region."
