This volume explores the ways petroleum as an industry and
substance has moulded the social, cultural and artistic life of the
Middle East. Rather than tackle the powers of this crucial resource
from the perspective of macro-economics, impersonal rentier states
and large corporations, this book 'brings oil back' into the ebbs
and flows of Middle Eastern life. It focuses on the ways petroleum
mediates and is mediated by national formations and imaginaries,
visual practices, as well as scientific, business and artistic
production. In focusing on the largest oil producing and exporting
region in the world, this volume sheds light on the effects and
affects of petroleum's presence within and beyond the oil-industry.
