Description: Representing some of the best of the innovative work in Middle East studies, Theory, Politics and the Arab World is a comprehensive, multidisciplinary effort to reconstruct the field. The contributors utilize a new criticism, largely fashioned by the concepts and vocabularies of postmodern paradigms--Continental theory, neo-Marxism, structuralism, poststructuralism, and feminist theory.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.
