The contributors in The Gulf Family examine the paradox of the persisting importance of family and tribe in the face of modernization.

They evaluate past and present roles of kinship in the GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council) states, assess the impacts of change, and speculate on likely future patterns of social, economic, and political organization.

Published in association with the London Middle East Institute at SOAS (School of Oriental and African Studies).

Alanoud Alsharekh is a member of the Advisory Council of the London Middle East Institute at the School of Oriental and African Studies and a consultant for the United Nations Development Fund for Women.
