Changed Political Attitudes in the Middle East
The groundswell of interest in Middle Eastern public opinion that arose from debates over the 'third wave' of democracy and the 'clash of civilizations' as well as from September 11 spawned numerous surveys from 2000 on.

Drawing on three surveys from the 1990s, this article examines ch…

This article seeks to determine if they have potential allies in the general population. Using survey data from …

A random sample of 1,500 Kuwaiti citizens, surveyed in 1994, provided data on individuals' status differences, their religious beliefs and practices and their embeddeness into social networks which are sources of attitude suppor…
