  • Pakistan: Arrival and Departure
    01-2180-2 CH 01:0545-1 10/13/11 10:47 AM Page 1 stephen p. cohen 1 Pakistan: Arrival and Departure How did Pakistan arrive at its present juncture? Pakistan was originally intended by its great leader, Mohammed Ali Jinnah, to transform the lives of British Indian Muslims by providing them a homeland sheltered from Hindu oppression. It did so for some, although they amounted to less than half of the Indian subcontinent’s total number of Muslims. The north Indian Muslim middle class that spearheaded the Pakistan movement found itself united with many Muslims who had been less than enthusiastic about forming Pak- istan, and some were hostile to the idea of an explicitly Islamic state. Pakistan was created on August 14, 1947, but in a decade self-styled field marshal Ayub Khan had replaced its shaky democratic political order with military-guided democracy, a market-oriented economy, and little effective investment in welfare or education. The Ayub experiment faltered, in part because of an unsuccessful war with India in 1965, and Ayub was replaced by another general, Yahya Khan, who could not manage the growing chaos. East Pakistan went into revolt, and with India’s assistance, the old Pakistan was bro- ken up with the creation of Bangladesh in 1971. The second attempt to transform Pakistan was short-lived. It was led by the charismatic Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, who simultaneously tried to gain control over the military, diversify Pakistan’s foreign and security policy, build a nuclear weapon, and introduce an economic order based on both Islam and socialism.

  • Historical Dictionary of Saudi Arabia
    HISTORICAL DICTIONARY OF SAUDI ARABIA J. E. PETERSON Second Edition – 2003 SELECTED BIBLIOGRAPHY The numbers of entries in the following bibliography, to a certain extent, seem to indicate that a rich body of literature exists on Saudi Arabia. I have made the point elsewhere that the volume of published material on the Arabian Peninsula, including Saudi Arabia, is misleading: While the factual outlines of the development of the seven states are fairly well known, little work has been done to fill in the contours. All too often, new writing consists of a rehash of stories already told, frequently relying on the same secondary sources, or of superficial country surveys prompted by the region's high profile over the last decade or two.1 In many respects, that unevenness of scholarship is reflected in this bibliography: one of the largest of the sections which follow is on the economy. Meanwhile, the literature on anthropology and social issues is embarrassingly slight. Perhaps because of the country's traditional isolation, historical writing on the period between the early centuries of Islam and the modern era is scarce. As a selective bibliography, certain classes of materials either have been excluded or only a small sample included. Arabic language sources are not comprehensive. General rules of inclusion have been to limit the selection to seminal books or those published recently or on topics of recent history. The preponderance of the English language among works in European languages reflects the kingdom's close ties to Britain and the United States. Items in other European languages, particularly French and German, have been included but not as systematically.

  • Saudi Arabia Pioneering and Leadership
    1 2 SAUDI ARABIA PIONEERING AND LEADERSHIP By Khodr Saleh First published in 2001 by THE ARAB WORLD MEDIA CENTER – AUSTRALIA 3 In The Name of God Most Gracious, Most Merciful SAUDI ARABIA PIONEERING AND LEADERSHIP Edited by: Khodr Saleh Updated Edition 2003 First published in 2001 by: THE ARAB WORLD MEDIA CENTER - AUSTRALIA P.O.BOX 766 RIVERWOOD NSW 2210 - SYDNEY - AUSTRALIA ISBN 0646400347 4 Preface By: Khodr Saleh The scene that the Arabic author Amin Elrihani discovered shortly after his first visit to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and his audience with King Abdel-Aziz, was unusual scene. It was as he expressed in one of his essays a total world that needs days and probably months to explore. It was probably similar to the scene I grasped few days after my arrival to Riyadh, the city I visited for the first time. I was invited by the invitation of the high committee chaired by the Governor of Riyadh, Prince Salman ben Abdel-Aziz, for the centennial celebration of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Before I go through the component of this world scenery, I must admit that I arrived to Riyadh holding only this holy vision which every Muslim carries since his birth, for the land of revelation and the birth place of the Prophet’ s mission and the home of the most noble the Prophet. Added to that another traditional vision spread by some media heavily clouded with vagueness and confusion about the land of camels and deserts that suddenly luck smiled on it with wealth and oil.
