Media Reviews
More than three years after the beginning of the uprisings in the Arab world, one is scarcely able to find a commentator with anything good to say about themleast of all one on the Left
Adam Hanieh’s Lineages of Revolt is a bracing corrective to this sort of thinking and deserves its place on the bookshelves and reading lists of students of the region and activists alike. Both meatily empirical and sharply theoretical, Hanieh’s book dispatches several of the clichés that inform the study of the political economy of the Arab world
Lineages of Revolt is, in short, a masterful achievement.”
Jaime Allinson, WorkingUSA
Praise for Capitalism and Class in the Gulf Arab States
This important, original work should be read by anyone with an interest in the political economy of the Middle East.”
Middle East Research and Information Project (MERIP).
"Hanieh's groundbreaking book argues that we should not view the Gulf Arab states as anomalies in the worldwide economy.'"
Arab Studies Journal
"Insightful, timely, and welcome...the analytical framework and substantial data he puts forward in the book will help readers map out the current and future processes of regional integration, class formations, and contradictions, and to situate these processes within the wider global political economy."
