Professor Omar H. AlShehabi on Decolonising the Study of the Arab World

Leading scholar of Gulf history and political economy Professor Omar H. AlShehabi discusses approaches to decolonising the study of the Arab world. Professor AlShehabi connects a wide range of themes including the British imperial imprint in the Gulf, the anti-colonial movements that emerged, and their linkages to the Palestinian liberation struggle in order to explore how their traditions challenge dominant perspectives of the Arab world and its peoples in the west and beyond. Omar H. AlShehabi (D.Phil., Oxford University) is the Director of the Gulf Centre for Development Policies and Associate Professor in Political Economy at the Gulf University for Science and Technology. His latest book in English “Contested Modernity: Sectarianism, Nationalism, and Colonialism in Bahrain” was released in 2019 with Oneworld Publications. Omar also serves as Senior Adviser to Fobzu.
