This book offers fresh insights to enhance and diversify our
understanding of the modern history of the state and societies in
today's Jordan, while also providing examples of why and how
scholars can challenge the static and discursively
government-minded approaches to minorities and minoritisation -
especially the traditional emphasis on demographic balances.
Despite its small size and initial appearance of homogeneity,
Jordan provides an excellent case of a dynamic, relational,
historically contingent and fluid approach to ethnic, political and
religious minorities in the context of the imposition of a modern
state system on complex and varied traditional societies. The
editors and contributors present dynamic and relational
perspectives on the status of and historical processes involved in
the creation and absorption of minority groups within Jordan.
