Book Synopsis
How the “Arab street” helped forge the national identity of Jordan.

Trade Review
"By focusing on the [Jordanian National Movement] and putting it in its context, not as an aberration in Jordan's history, but as a logical result of a long and ongoing practice of political expression and activism on both banks of the Jordan, Anderson adds much theoretical sophistication to the scholarship on Jordan." * Arab Studies Journal *
