As popular uprisings spread across the Middle East, popular wisdom often held that the Gulf States would remain beyond the fray. In Sectarian Gulf, Toby Matthiesen paints a very different picture, offering the first assessment of the Arab Spring across the region. With first-hand accounts of events in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait, Matthiesen tells the story of the early protests, and illuminates how the regimes quickly suppressed these movements.
Pitting citizen against citizen, the regimes have warned of an increasing threat from the Shia population. Relations between the Gulf regimes and their Shia citizens have soured to levels as bad as 1979, following the Iranian revolution. Since the crackdown on protesters in Bahrain in mid-March 2011, the "Shia threat" has again become the catchall answer to demands for democratic reform and accountability. While this strategy has ensured regime survival in the short term, Matthiesen warns of the 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.

This collection comprises 69 surveys, charts and plans of Bahrain, many in colour, including the complete island and surrounding waters and islands. The publication makes valuable maps available which were previously unknown or inaccessible and is particularly important because of its diversity of sources including some private collections. It begins in 1817 with the first ever mention of Muharraq City on a map and finishes in 1970 with the last maps made before independence. It includes the first ever town plans of Manama and Muharraq to be compiled by the Government of Bahrain, and the first ever accurate land survey of the Hawar islands. There is also a detailed commentary on each map in a separate booklet.

A book that portrays the political situation and its trace in the Kingdom of Bahrain. Unlike what most presumed, political unrest didn't start in 2011 and it was not occasioned by the regional conflicts but has been in the making for a long time.
This book is written to provide a comprehensive, factual retelling of the historical and current aspects of the political scene in Bahrain. Includes a thorough analysis on the political societies, their ideologies, their manifestos, affiliations, and their stories. It as well presents a broader study of Bahraini politics and showcasing of all the elements involved in the political configuration of the Kingdom, including the government, its structure, constitution, and the related bodies. This review presents a record of the kingdom's political history, and all involved factors in the political structure, and how successes and drawbacks have shaped today's political outcomes.
