"""Drawing on extensive primary sources, employing robust research methods, and engagingly written, this is a vital addition to the literature on the United Arab Emirates - now not only the Arab world's second biggest economy, but arguably one of its most potent diplomatic and military actors."" --Christopher M. Davidson, Associate Fellow of the Henry Jackson Society, UK ""In this thought-provoking new study, Khalifa al-Suwaidi explores how and why the UAE has emerged from the Arab spring not just with enhanced regional power, but as an important global actor. Noting the importance of this activism in entrenching the existing dynastic order among its citizenry, the book is an antidote to those who argue that Rentierism alone remains the bedrock of order and stability across the Emirates."" --Professor Clive Jones, Durham University"
