Exploring Bahrain's modern history through the lens of repression,
this concise and accessible account work spans the twentieth and
twenty-first centuries, looking at all forms of political
repression from legal, statecraft, police brutality and
informational controls. Considering several episodes of contention
in Bahrain, from tribal resistance to the British reforms of the
1920s, the rise of the Higher Executive Committee in the 1950s, the
leftist agitation of the 1970s, the 1990s Intifada and the 2011
Uprising, Marc Owen Jones offers never before seen insights into
the British role in Bahrain, as well as the activities of the Al
Khalifa Ruling Family. From the plundering of Bahrain's resources,
to new information about the torture and murder of Bahrain
civilians, this study reveals new facts about Bahrain's troubled
political history. Using freedom of information requests,
historical documents, interviews, and data from social media, this
is a rich and original interdisciplinary history of Bahrain over
one hundred years.
