Saudi Arabia and Yemen are two countries of crucial importance in
the Middle East and yet our knowledge about them is highly limited,
while typical ways of looking at the histories of these countries
have impeded understanding. Counter-Narratives brings together a
group of leading scholars of the Middle East using new theoretical
and methodological approaches to cross-examine standard stories,
whether as told by Westerners or by Saudis and Yemenis, and these
are found wanting. The authors assess how grand historical
narratives such as those produced by states and colonial powers are
currently challenged by multiple historical actors, a process which
generates alternative narratives about identity, the state and
society.
