{"product_id":"life-worlds-of-middle-eastern-nelida-fuccaro-9781399506151","title":"Life Worlds of Middle Eastern Oil: Histories and Ethnographies of Black Gold","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis volume explores the ways petroleum as an industry and substance has moulded the social, cultural and artistic life of the Middle East. Rather than tackle the powers of this crucial resource from the perspective of macro-economics, impersonal rentier states and large corporations, this book 'brings oil back' into the ebbs and flows of Middle Eastern life. It focuses on the ways petroleum mediates and is mediated by national formations and imaginaries, visual practices, as well as scientific, business and artistic production. In focusing on the largest oil producing and exporting region in the world, this volume sheds light on the effects and affects of petroleum's presence within and beyond the oil-industry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nelida Fuccaro\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1399506153\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781399506151\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.85d","brand":"Nelida Fuccaro","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46401601143039,"sku":"9781399506151","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3a13ef84-225a-49db-83ee-1a791c3b2fc9.jpg?v=1733888080","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/life-worlds-of-middle-eastern-nelida-fuccaro-9781399506151","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
