Explanation of the book
The nineteen chapters of the book address the problem of social integration, national integration, and nation-building, which the Arab Center chose as the focus of the research, not only because of the importance of this problem for the social sciences, but also because its questions and issues have re-emerged in a very clear and prominent manner in recent decades, especially in the current phase of major change in modern Arab social history after the transition from the Ottoman League to the state system, then the transition from the phase of mandate, colonialism, and colonial influence to the phase of independent states after the end of World War II, the dismantling of old or direct colonialism, and the dominance of authoritarian regimes in the Arab world after a fragile liberal period in some Arab countries, which has rethought issues of the state, development, citizenship, and identity, and the role of the nature of the authoritarian state, its policies, or what these policies have led to in terms of exclusion and marginalization, distorted distribution of power and wealth, and the production of a new basis for vertical and regional civil social divisions.
