"Having travelled through various parts of the Arab world and conducted extensive research with youth populations, Momani has formed a more hopeful and positive view of the prospects for change in the Middle East. This book will be an accessible study which focuses on individuals contexualized within broader economic and social changes occurring at the global level. Interweaving political analysis, historical narrative, and on the ground interviews, this will be a timely corrective to an embedded perception of Arab youth"-- Provided by publisher.
