  • 1 Speaking About Qatar
    SPEAKING ABOUT QATAR: DISCOURSES ON NATIONAL IDENTITY IN POSTCOLONIAL GULF Erick Viramontes Viramontes A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The Australian National University July, 2018 1 DECLARATION This thesis is an account of research undertaken between January 2014 and July 2018 at the Research School of Social Sciences, School of Politics and International Relations, The Australian National University, Canberra, Australia. Except where acknowledged in the customary manner, the material presented in this thesis is, to the best of my knowledge, original and has not been submitted in whole or part for a degree in any university. __________________________ Erick Viramontes Viramontes July 2018 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The process that led to this thesis, which began in mid-2013 in the Mexican Altiplano, was full of satisfaction and learning, but also carried with it moments of frustration, difficulty and despair. For this reason, its completion would not have been possible without the unconditional support and invaluable advice from many people to whom I will be forever grateful. I would like to express my deepest thanks to the members of my panel, who provided challenging and enriching insights at every step along this long journey. In particular, I would like to thank my primary supervisor, April Biccum, for her emphasis on the theoretical implications of my research, and my advisor Sean Burges, whose comments helped develop my thinking. I would also like to thank James Piscatori and Mathew Gray from the Center for Arab and Islamic Studies, who put their knowledge and expertise on the Middle East at the service of this project, and Sean Foley, who was a visiting fellow at the Center during my time as a Ph.D.

  • Qatar: Governance, Security, and U.S. Policy
    Qatar: Governance, Security, and U.S. Policy Updated August 27, 2021 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R44533 SUMMARY R44533 Qatar: Governance, Security, and U.S. Policy August 27, 2021 The State of Qatar, a small Arab Gulf monarchy which has about 300,000 citizens in a total population of about 2.4 million, has employed its ample financial resources to exert Kenneth Katzman regional influence, often independent of the other members of the Gulf Cooperation Specialist in Middle Council (GCC: Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain, and Eastern Affairs Oman) alliance. Qatar has fostered a close defense and security alliance with the United States and has maintained ties to a wide range of actors who are often at odds with each other, including Sunni Islamists, Iran and Iran-backed groups, and Israeli officials. Qatar’s support for regional Muslim Brotherhood organizations and its Al Jazeera media network have contributed to a backlash against Qatar led by fellow GCC states Saudi Arabia and the UAE. In June 2017, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Bahrain, joined by Egypt and a few other governments, severed relations with Qatar and imposed limits on the entry and transit of Qatari nationals and vessels in their territories, waters, and airspace. The Trump Administration sought a resolution of the dispute, in part because the rift was hindering U.S. efforts to formalize a “Middle East Strategic Alliance” of the United States, the GCC, and other Sunni-led countries in the region to counter Iran. Qatar has countered the Saudi-led pressure with new arms purchases and deepening relations with Turkey and Iran.

    The World Factbook Middle East :: Qatar Introduction :: Qatar Background: Ruled by the Al Thani family since the mid-1800s, Qatar transformed itself from a poor British protectorate noted mainly for pearling into an independent state with significant oil and natural gas revenues. During the late 1980s and early 1990s, the Qatari economy was crippled by a continuous siphoning off of petroleum revenues by the Amir, who had ruled the country since 1972. His son, the current Amir HAMAD bin Khalifa Al Thani, overthrew the father in a bloodless coup in 1995. In 2001, Qatar resolved its longstanding border disputes with both Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. As of 2007, oil and natural gas revenues had enabled Qatar to attain the highest per capita income in the world. Qatar has not experienced the level of unrest or violence seen in other Near Eastern and North African countries in 2010-11, due in part to its immense wealth. Qatar's international image is bolstered in part by the Doha-based Al Jazeera news network, which has provided comprehensive coverage of the Near East and North African Arab revolutions. Additionally, Qatar played a significant role in the Libyan revolution by pressing the Gulf Cooperation Council and the Arab League to assist the Libyan rebel movement.
