Zusammenfassung Local "peripheries" in the Arab world have for decades been seen as "static" and thus not worthy of much attention. This volume instead explores their contribution and reaction to the Arab uprisings and so diversifies our understanding of the wider social dynamics of the Arab Spring. This book was published as a special issue of Mediterranean Politics. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1. Arab Spring: The Role of the Peripheries.
