Lost in Globalization International Economic Integration and Sources of Popular Discontent Review

Abstract

This chapter directs attending to Muslim citizens' attitudes toward regional organizations. Focusing on Arab citizens in particular, information technology concentrates on the Arab League and the Gulf Cooperation Quango (GCC). The old is one of the world's oldest international and regional organizations; the latter has long been relatively unknown, despite beingness much more successful in its policies than the Arab League. The chapter argues that public opinion toward these organizations is most affected by each organisation'south performance respective to its purported aims. Therefore, it is expected that the Arab League would be perceived less favorably than the GCC. Several datasets are used to test this affiliate's hypothesis. The findings indicate that favorability toward the GCC is indeed significantly higher than toward the Arab League. For individual-level factors, the chapter finds the evaluation of the Arab League functioning is about pregnant in affecting attitudes toward the League.
