Economic and Political Change in the Middle East (RLE Economy of Middle East)
In the early 1960s the Middle East suffered from political instability, inefficiency of government, widespread poverty and inequality, low productivity, and a mounting population pressure on the region’s resources. With the exception of some of the oil-exporting countries, the entire region still suffers from these same burdens. There have been many studies in the economic development and industrialization of the region in recent years. This stud…

Institutionalized obstacles to development
Why Problems Do Not Go Away
Problems persist despite efforts to solve them because those efforts are irrelevant, inadequate, or unsupported. A behavioral structure consisting of the philosophy of the system in which the problem resides, its institutions, administration, and the operation that implements its policies is devised to analyze persistent problems such as inequality, underdevelopment, and inflation. As a chronic problem in the United States and other capitalist ec…

Agrarian Reform in Historical Perspective Revisited
IntroductionPrograms of agrarian reform have continued to be used either to bring about change or sometimes to slow it down, depending on whether such programs were introduced after a major upheaval in society or as a preventive against it. Economic development and modernization have been used as justifications for introducing reform programs, on the assumption that reform facilitates these processes, but the actual contribution of reform to deve…
The Economic Viability Of A Palestine State
XTarious people have wondered whether an Arab State of Palestine on the West Bank and Gaza can be economically viable. Few attempts, however, have been made to analyse the issue systematically; equally few have been the attempts to clarify the meaning of viability. This study treats both. The following section discusses the meaning of viability. Section 2 explores the prerequisites for viability, both the objective and the subjective. Section 3 a…

Economic History and the Social Sciences
Agriculture and Economic Development in the Middle East
Several observations may be safely made regarding agriculture in the Middle East: it has continued to be the major economic sector in the region; it has developed conspicuously in the last two decades although the gains have been seriously diminished by the increase in population; agriculture still has a great potential for change and development, given the natural endowments of the region. The path to such development, if one can be identified, …

Agrarian Reform in Historical Perspective a Comparative Study
The history of agrarian reform is as long as the history of the world, extending back into medieval, ancient, and biblical times. Like many other socio-economic and political movements, agrarian reform movements have been sporadic and discontinuous, although the last two centuries have witnessed almost continuous reform attempts commencing with the French Revolution. These attempts have become very common during the last two decades and have beco…
