Description
Seeks to understand the mechanisms of social and political perpetuation of authoritarianism in post-colonial states such as Oman. This book shows how one monarchical power has built and renewed its basis to meet the challenges threatening its stability. It also sheds light on the strategies adopted and challenges faced by other Arab monarchies.
