Kay Gallagher gathers insightful research from across the lower Arabian gulf to uncover the richness and diversity of World Englishes within the contemporary Arab Gulf states. Her volume presents novel research from this emerging nexus of rapid economic, social, and linguistic development. The countries of the lower Arabian Gulf (Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates) have, to varying degrees, harnessed English as an internal working language and as a means to communicate globally. Gulf countries that have not featured much in the WE literature to date are highlighted in this volume, including Bahrain and Kuwait, and the use of English in the emerging colossus of Saudi Arabia is examined. Novel insights from more prominent locations are presented here for the first time, including the use of English to counter negative Islamic stereotypes during the FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar, and its role in ensuring safety in a multilingual, high-risk industry in the UAE. New research into the challenges encountered in English-medium higher education in Oman and Kuwait is reported also. The linguistic features of “Gulf English” are explored, and the interplay and tensions between Arabic and English and other languages are addressed. The Englishes of expatriate populations in the Gulf are examined, including the English identity of majority and minority resident transnational groups. The issue of whether a distinctive variety of Gulf English has emerged in this multilingual melting pot, characterized by transience and flux, is debatable, and the establishment of “Gulf English” as an endonormative new variety remains elusive. This book will appeal to those with an interest in World Englishes in general, as well as those who are interested in the roles and varieties of English in use in this globally unique and rapidly evolving context.The six states of the Lower Gulf - Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) - form an economic and political alliance known as the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC). The region’s oil-rich economies have attracted millions of migrant workers, both blue-collar and white-collar, from East and West. Transnational workers have brought linguistic diversity along with multiple varieties of English to this traditionally Arabic-speaking region, amplifying an increased internal demand for English, such that English is shifting in the Gulf from a foreign language to a lingua franca.

The A to Z of the Gulf Arab States comes at a time when the world's attention is riveted on the Middle East. The small states covered in this volume-Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE)-possess about 20 percent of the world's total oil reserves. Beyond the strategic and economic importance conferred upon them by their vast oil reserves, the Gulf Arab states are worthy of attention for the inherent interest of their history and culture. No area of the world has yielded more revealing and exciting archaeological finds in the past few decades than these states. Investigations have brought to light extensive evidence of an important culture as old as Egypt of the Pharaohs or ancient Babylon, which was virtually unknown previously except through rare references in the records of other civilizations. The A to Z of the Gulf Arab States is a paperback reprint of the Historical Dictionary of the Gulf Arab States. This edition covers the history of the five countries through a chronology broken down by country, a list of acronyms and abbreviations, an introductory essay, a bibliography, and several hundred cross-referenced dictionary entries on important persons, places, and events of each country. Everything from the Abbasids to Zubarah is covered in this essential reference on this increasingly important region of the world.

The digital age has exercised considerable influence not only on language use but also on research and teaching in this field. The present volume showcases some aspects of language-related investigation that reflect the interests, experiences, and challenges of theorists, practitioners, and language instructors today. Drawing on the linguistic corpus, parallel texts in different languages and a variety of approaches and methodologies, the book features three main lines of inquiry: L1 syntactic structure, L1-L2 contact and transfer, and L2 pedagogy. The use of case-studies and authentic data makes Language and Communication in the Digital Age a valuable source of insights into some linguistic peculiarities of Romanian and English, and highlights new research avenues for specialists in language and communication.

This book provides a detailed analysis of the complicated relations between Iran and its Arab neighbours. Arab perceptions of Iran, its regional policies and role in the Arab region, have never been more complicated than today. How is one to make sense of the increasingly complex and at times tense relationship between Iran and its Arab neighbours? Given the strategic significance of this sub-region and the importance of relations between its states to international security, this edited volume systematically accounts for each Arab neighbour’s perception, policies and approach towards the Islamic republic, for the first time providing a clear and detailed comparative analysis of these relationships. This book, bringing together a group of leading scholars of the region, not only provides a clear lens for the policy community through which to gauge the causes of change and the reasons for continuity in relations, but also offers an invaluable tool for scholars of the wider region and the growing community of researchers focusing on this sub-region.
