Kuwait Programme and Middle East Centre public seminar
Toby Matthiesen offers a first-hand account of the Arab Spring protests in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, and the Gulf States, and shows how the regimes have encouraged sectarian divisions to undermine protests, effectively creating a Sectarian Gulf. While this has ensured regime survival in the short term, Matthiesen warns of dire consequences this will have-for the social fabric of the Gulf States, for the rise of transnational Islamist networks, and for the future of the Middle East.
Dr Toby Matthiesen is a Research Officer at the LSE Kuwait Programme.
Dr Kristian Ulrichsen is Co-Director of the LSE Kuwait Programme.
