内容説明・目次
内容説明
Challenging established thinking about the Middle East, and informed by post-modern, neo-Marxist and feminist theory, these essays argue that the political concerns of the West have influenced the way the Arabs have been treated in Western thinking. The book claims that stereotypical interpretations of Islam and of the "Arab mind" have reflected a political hostility to the Arab world. Examining the issue of Arab representation from a number of academic standpoints, these essays span history, political theory and economy, anthropology and social psychology. This book should be of interest to advanced students of Arab studies.
