Routledge Studies in Environmental Policy

Environmental Challenges and Political Stability in the Middle East explores how environmental degradation, climate change, and resource scarcity intersect with political instability and social unrest across one of the world's most vulnerable regions.In this timely and insightful work, this book examines how the mounting pressures of climate change-ranging from water scarcity and desertification to rising temperatures and migration-serve as catalysts for conflict and governance challenges in the Middle East. Drawing on extensive research, case studies, and firsthand experience, the book reveals how environmental stress acts as a threat multiplier: amplifying inequalities, undermining economic resilience, and destabilizing fragile states such as Syria, Yemen, and Jordan. Moving beyond diagnosis, the book offers pathways toward resilience through sustainable resource management, regional cooperation, and inclusive governance. It emphasizes that addressing environmental challenges is not merely a technical task but a political and moral imperative-central to peacebuilding and sustainable development in the twenty-first century.Bridging environmental science, political analysis, and development studies, this comprehensive book offers a thorough and accessible perspective on the climate-conflict nexus. It will appeal to academics, policymakers, practitioners, and globally engaged readers interested in environmental governance, international relations, peace studies, and the future of the Middle East.

This open access edited collection is the first book-length academic publication on the Palestinian Bedouins at risk of forced displacement in the Central West Bank and Greater Jerusalem area. At its core are two questions: firstly; what are the humanitarian vulnerabilities they face and how are they produced/constructed? And secondly, how does protracted impunity for international law violations drive humanitarian protection risks for them? It interweaves international law, community-based empirical research and interdisciplinary perspectives, to offer the broadest possible framework for understanding these complex and complicated questions. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by UKRI.

Fintech in the Middle East

'Moving and generous' Isabella Hammad, author of Enter Ghost 'Fire in Every Direction is a marvel' Omar El Akkad, author of One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This 'Luminous, moving, and achingly beautiful' Maaza Mengiste, author of The Shadow King 'A deeply inspiring and absorbing read' Mark Gevisser, author of The Pink Line 'Spending time with the real people in Fire in Every Direction is a delight' Rabih Alameddine, author of An Unnecessary Woman Both a love story and a coming-of-age tale that spans countries and continents, Fire in Every Direction balances humour and loss, nostalgia and hope, as it takes us from the Middle East to London, and from 1948 to the present. Tareq Baconi crafts a deeply intimate, unforgettable portrait of how a political consciousness - desire and resistance - is passed down through generations. In 1948, Tareq's grandmother would flee Haifa as Zionist militias seized the city. In the late 1970s, she would flee Beirut with her daughter, as the country was in the throes of a civil war. In Amman, the family would eventually obtain the comfort of middle-class life - still, a young Tareq would feel trapped: by cultures of silence, by a sense of not belonging, by his own growing awareness that he is in love with his childhood best friend, Ramzi. After relocating to London, Tareq hopes to put aside his past. Yet as the Iraq War radicalizes young people around the world towards anti-war protest, history comes back to him. Living between the region and London, Tareq fits in neither and feels alienated from both. Queerness is policed back in Amman, just as his Palestinian-ness is abroad. These gradual estrangements escalate, forcing him to grapple with what it means to live in liminal spaces, and rethink the meaning of home.

Palgrave Studies in Prisons and Penology

Prison building has moved from the margins to the mainstream of our penal politics. In recent years the UK Government has invested billions in new prison building and the main political parties are currently locked into a penal arms race over who can, and who will, build the most additional prison places in England and Wales. Prison building is now widely lauded as the definitive policy solution to the current prisons crisis and yet, this remains an elusive sphere of penal policymaking. Academic research remains in its infancy, and we still know very little about how these large investment decisions are made, by whom and for what reasons.
In seeking to shine a light on this subterranean and largely closed sphere of contemporary penal policymaking, this book presents the first systematic study of prison building programmes in England and Wales since the mid-1990’s punitive turn. Drawing upon extensive archival research, 28 exploratory qualitative interviews, publicly recorded data, historic satellite imagery and other mapping techniques this book has three main aims: (1) to provide an authoritative historical account of prison building activity in England and Wales since the mid-1990s punitive turn, (2) to explain why successive governments have chosen to invest in new prison building programmes and (3) to reflect upon how the prisons we build - functionally, architecturally, geographically – continue to shape our politics long after they have been constructed.

Islamic Business and Finance Series

Digitalization, FinTech and Social Finance

Islamic Finance in the Modern Era

This volume addresses the drivers and mechanisms of institutional change in Europe and East Asia during times of international crisis. Under what conditions and through what processes does a form of regionalism or regionalization change? Why is there a different pace of development, and what mechanism is responsible for institutional change? Is it simply copying, or are there other mechanisms at work? Why do regions institutionalize, and why don't others?
We will distinguish between "regionalization" and "regionalism." While the former is a bottom-up process involving all kinds of citizens, non-governmental organizations, and academic circles, the latter is a top-down activity. It is the work of states, public international organizations, and diplomats. This book focuses on both phenomena. One could argue that East Asia first experienced regionalization, followed by regionalism. In the EU, however, it may be the other way around, as international organizations and elites have largely driven the integration project thus far.

A Study of Drivers of Regionalism and Their Limits

Regional Integration and Institutional Change in East Asia and the European Union

In recent years, the de facto head of the House of Saud, Mohammed bin Salman, has promoted the oil-rich kingdom as an open, liberalizing nation that has invested in culture, tourism, and social innovation to become a beacon for the region. Malise Ruthven, a leading commentator on Islamic affairs, reveals the historical currents beneath these changes: how the royal house co-opted Wahhabism to consolidate its power and enforce authoritarianism in collusion with Western businesses and governments.

Essential Psychoanalysis

In this influential lecture, Edward Said explores Freud’s foundational work Moses and Monotheism to rethink the relationship between identity, politics and psychoanalysis. The result is a study illuminating both Freud’s thinking and that of Said, on whom the great psychoanalyst was a formative influence. Was Moses Jewish or an Egyptian? The question undermines any simple ascription of identity, highlighting the limits of these categories. Said suggests that such an unresolved, nuanced sense of identity might, if embodied in political reality, form the basis for a new understanding between Jews and Palestinians. In contrast, Israel's relentless march towards an exclusively Jewish state denies any sense of a more complex, inclusive past. With an introduction by Christopher Bollas and a response by Jacqueline Rose.
