Summary, etc. "The nine Arab states of the Lower Gulf -- Bahrayn, Qatar and the seven member states of the United Arab Amirates -- were catapulted onto the international scene shortly after they received their full independence from Great Britain in 1971. The global energy situation ensures that they will continue to engage the attention of the outside world for some time to come. The majority of these states are oil producers, and they include some of the world's wealthiest societies in terms of income per capita; they also include some of the poorest. The problems and opportunities presented by these circumstances offer uniquechallenges to the governments and peoples of these states. This study, bas ed on extensive field research by the author, examines these traditional societies in terms of the ongoing impact of petroleum and the changes it is bringing to their political and socio-economic systems." - from the dustjacket. Brief mentions of smaller villages and cities. Sharjah: Al-Layh, Al-Khan, Dibba, Al-Hirrah, Al-Hamriyah, Al-Dhayd, Kalbah, Khawr Fakkan.
