Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a time when it seems difficult to communicate and break down barriers of mutual distrust, this book presents the views of leading Arab intellectuals from countries from Morocco to the Gulf who discuss their own highly diverse personal and professional perspectives on cosmopolitanism in the Middle East. The idea for the book springs from a seminar organized by the European Cultural Foundation in September 1996 on the future of cosmopolitanism in the Middle East.
