4.9/5 (30796 ratings)

Description:Identity plays an important part in terms of how we imagine our relationship with the state and governing bodies. If we know who we are, then we can know and articulate what we want as political actors. This book examines the relationship between identity and political resistance in the context of the Arab and non-Arab Middle East by focusing on recent uprisings, protests and revolutions in the region. The case studies here - Iran, Palestine, Israel, Yemen, Tunisia, Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Iraqi Kurdistan highlight a number of dynamics and different forms of resistance. The chapters show that political identities are not static and that they cannot only be understood in terms of dichotomies of Islamism vs. secularism or Sunnism vs. Shi ism. Examining the impact of everyday grassroots politics on the question of identity, the role of ordinary interests and concerns within a dynamic political community, the book explores how processes whereby seemingly competing identities must be navigated, negotiated and must engage with each other."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
