Doing business in the Middle East: politics and economic crisis in Jordan und Kuwait

In: Cambridge Middle East studies 20

Is business the solution to the problems of the Middle East? Some economists and policymakers argue that unleashing the Arab private sector is the key to sustainable growth and more liberal politics. Pete Moore's book is the first to examine relations between state authority and elite business representation in the region. By analysing the Kuwait and Jordan cases, he considers why organised business in Kuwait has been able to coordinate policy reform with state officials, while their Jordanian counterparts have generally failed. The author concludes that unleashing the private sector alone is insufficient to change current political and economic arrangements, and that successful economic adjustment requires successful political adjustment

Comment on Gordon L. Clark and Ashby Monk, "Modernity, Imitation, and Performance: Sovereign Funds in the Gulf,"Business and Politics14 (1, 2012): 1–22

In: Business and politics: B&P, Volume 15, Issue 4, p. 553-559

ISSN: 1469-3569

Professors Gordon Clark and Ashby Monk's "Modernity, Imitation, and Performance: Sovereign Funds in the Gulf" represent a welcome departure from previous studies of Gulf Sovereign Wealth Funds by beginning to explore the origins and the changes in Gulf SWFs. However by way of critical commentary on their article, I sketch out a political economy approach to understanding Gulf SWFs and place these institutions within an historical and political setting.
