Description

Qatar Small State, Big Politics by Mehran Kamrava is an in-depth analysis of the emirate's influence on regional and international politics. Despite its small size, Qatar has become a major player in diplomatic, cultural, and economic spheres. The country's wealth, largely due to its oil and gas reserves, has enabled the ruling al Thani family to exert significant influence over global affairs. This "tiny giant" is home to the headquarters of Al Jazeera and the US Central Command's Forward Headquarters, among other notable institutions. Kamrava explores Qatar's role in the global system, challenging conventional views on the power of small states. A critical examination of contemporary Qatari politics and society, this book offers valuable insights into the country's emergence as a significant player in international affairs.
