The Economy of Jordan: The Implications of Peace in the Middle EastThe economy of Jordan is a study prepared as background data for research into the possible implications of Middle East peace. The main preoccupation of this book is the period 1967-1976, a time during which the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan had to recuperate from one war which literally tore its economy in half, and in which it had to endure another short but painful civil war. The author's concern is with the development of Jordan economically, and with the trends for the future. |
