- More about Making Sense of the Arab State
The Middle East has been characterized by hostility to democracy, military and security institutions, and weak economic development and inclusive governance, with Arab states being oppressively strong in some areas and devastatingly weak in others. The state stands at the center of the analysis of politics in the region, but has rarely been the primary focus of systematic theoretical analysis. Making Sense of the Arab State brings together top scholars from diverse theoretical orientations to address these questions and will be a must-read for scholars of the Middle East and of comparative politics more broadly.

The Middle East has been a region characterized by hostility to democracy, military and security institutions, and weak economic development and inclusive governance. Arab states have been oppressively strong in some areas but devastatingly weak in others, affecting politics, economics, and society across the region. The state plays a central role in the analysis of politics in the Middle East, but has rarely been the primary focus of systematic theoretical analysis. Making Sense of the Arab State brings together top scholars from diverse theoretical orientations to address some of the most critically important questions facing the region today. The authors grapple with enduring questions such as the uneven development of state capacity, the failures of developmentalism and governance, the centrality of regime security and survival concerns, the excesses of surveillance and control, and the increasing personalization of power. Making Sense of the Arab State will be a must-read for scholars of the Middle East and of comparative politics more broadly.
