Wide-ranging in scope, minorities of diverse religious and ethno-linguistic backgrounds are included from North Africa, the Levant, and the Arabian Peninsula. Each has experienced the Arab Spring differently and uniquely depending upon their context. Of particular concern to the international team of scholars involved in this volume, is the interaction and reaction of minorities to the protest movements across the Arab World that called for greater democratic rights and end to respective autocratic regimes. While some minorities participated in the Arab Spring, others were wary of instability and the unintended effects of regime change - notably the rise of violent Islamism. The full effects of the Arab Spring will not be known for years to come, but for the minorities of the Middle East, the immediate future seems certainly tenuous at best NO Tabellen, Literaturverzeichnis Seite 309-325, Literaturhinweise CN DS58 SN 9781463206536 K1 Minorities : History : 21st century : Middle East K1 Religious Minorities : History : 21st century : Middle East K1 Linguistic minorities : History : 21st century : Middle East K1 Arab Spring, 2010- K1 Linguistic minorities K1 Minorities K1 Religious Minorities : Middle East K1 Minorities : Middle East : History : 21st century K1 Religious Minorities : Middle East : History : 21st century K1 Linguistic minorities : Middle East : History : 21st century K1 Minderheit K1 Ethnische Gruppe K1 Bevölkerungsgruppe K1 Religiöse Identität K1 Politisches Verhalten K1 Sozialverhalten K1 Naher Osten K1 Mittlerer Osten K1 Nordafrika K1 Aufsatzsammlung
