Full Description
How do spatial dynamics and narrated identities shape each other? How do the ongoing processes of inclusion and exclusion construct individual and group self-perceptions within the Kuwaiti and Jordanian societies?
In this book, the author explores these questions through a spatial lens, examining the evolving narrated identities within Kuwait and Jordan. The monograph contributes to MENA studies, Middle Eastern history, nationalism, minority studies, late Ottoman studies, post-colonialism, national and transnationalism, and the history of epistemology.
