Affluence and Poverty in the Middle East explores the causes and consequences of the persistent poverty and extreme inequality that have characterized the region. Using extensive empirical evidence M. Riad El-Ghonemy helps us to understand the impact of co-existing affluence and poverty. In the first part of the book, he investigates the common cultural and economic factors that have brought about such an extreme polarization of living standards. He focuses particularly on: historical origins; religion; economic foundations and corruption using a number of case studies to illustrate how each factor has affected different countries in the region. The second part consists of country studies that examine how particular governments and NGOs have responded to vast inequalities in the distribution of wealth, income and opportunities.
