One of the fascinating narratives emerging from multiple studies is the story of how diverse actors in the Middle East sought to facilitate and to master the social, economic, legal, and military engines of globalization, sometimes with disastrous results. It’s a story of immigrants and itinerate students, but also of displaced persons and refugees. Cultural imperialism, but also bold and local innovation. The political and human costs of globalization obscure the fact that the modern Middle East has also partaken in the beneficial effects of a more inter-connected world, and, that other parts of the world reflect the influences of modern Middle East through its diasporas.
