The contributors to this volume bring the disciplines of anthropology, history and political science to bear on the relationship of tribes to state formation. From a number of perspectives, they examine the definition, function, and interrelationship of tribes and states at different times and in different parts of the Middle East. Offering a fuller understanding of the complexities and particular patterns of state formation in regions where tribes have exercised a significant influence, this volume focuses on the continuing existence of tribal structures and systems in contemporary times, within contemporary nation-states. #21546.
