Political Economy, Power, and Cultural Heritage in the Arab World

  • Edited by: Hicham Alaoui and Robert Springborg
Language: English
Published/Copyright: 2025

About this book

The authors of this groundbreaking, multidisciplinary collection are concerned with the growing politicization of cultural heritage in the Arab world. Adopting the unifying concept of political economy, they explore how regimes manipulate cultural heritage—and sometimes even deliberately erase it—to support their own legitimacy.
