The Arab spring and the Gulf states

Time to embrace change
Written by a former minister in the Qatari government, this book analyses the important areas of demography, security, provision of food and water and the political and economic systems of the Arab countries at the centre of the 'Arab Spring,' from Tunisia and Egypt to Sudan and Syria. The author's has a first-hand knowledge of the Arab ruling elites and emphasises the need of a stable and prosperous future for their countries coupled with the acceptance by the rulers of the need to change with greater freedom, democracy, private sector involvement in the economy. This in turn must lead to the protection of people's rights under the law to build a lasting, sustainable system.
