By observing less frequented spaces of power, co-option, and negotiation, and particularly by focusing on the interplay between formal and informal power, this interdisciplinary collection provides new insights in the study of the intersection between policy-making and practical political dynamics in the Greater Middle East.Contributing a fresh perspective to a much-discussed topic, Informal Power in the Greater Middle East will be an invaluable resource for students, scholars and those interested in the politics of the region"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Introduction : crossing the formal/informal boundary / Andrea Teti, Gennaro Gervasio & Luca Anceschi -- In-formalized polity and the politics of dynasty in Egypt and Libya / Larbi Sadiki -- Beyond the party : the shifting structure of Syria's power / Lorenzo Trombetta -- Power and clanism in the occupied Palestinian Territory / Massimo Alone -- When informal powers surface : civic activism and the 2011 Egyptian Revolution / Gennaro Gervasio & Andrea Teti -- Informal institutions in Turkish politics : the case of proxy leadership / Gokhan Bacik -- Radicalism or revolution? : power and resistance in Iran / Arshin Adib-Moghaddam -- Beyond "culture" and "tradition" in Sudan : the role of the state in reinventing Darfur's tribal politics / Noah R.
