Descrizione The Modern History of Jordan
Few states in the modern world have had a less promising birth than Jordan. When in 1921 the Hashemite Emir Abdallah was recognized as the ruler of this backwater of the former Ottoman Empire, it was sparsely populated, extremely poor, and widely regarded as ungovernable. Today, Jordan has become one of the most prosperous and stable countries in the Middle East and a major player in the region's politics. In this political history, Kamal Salibi describes how the transformation was achieved, tracing the story of modern Jordan from its origin in the Arab revolt at the end of the First World War.
