Saudi Arabia is one of the most controversial and least known of
the Arab nations. A land of massive contrasts - between its densely
populated cities and its vast expanses of desert; between the
recent poverty of its villages and the massive wealth created by
oil, which is drawing a labour force from most of the neighbouring
countries; between the aggressive technocratic and industrial
thrust forward and the strongly traditionalist Islamic basis of the
ruling ideologies - it has progressed to world prominence in a
matter of years after centuries of little or no change. The change
is not so much a surge, or even a thrust, as a rush into the
industrialized and wealthy world. This book analyzes the problems
and achievements of Saudi development and provides the first
detailed critique of the Third Development Plan. First published in
1982.
