内容説明

By examining the corruption, treatment of dissidents, penal system, suppression of women and slavery, this book looks at the current human rights situation in Saudi Arabia. Detailing from pre-Islamic times to the present, it draws attention to the influence of Mohammed, the Saudi ascendancy, the role of the West, the discovery of oil and the wars in the region. Attention is also given to the various economic, political and religious problems that today face the Saudi regime and to the Saudi response. This book should be of interest to students of history, Middle East studies, politics, international relations and economics.
