Overview

Arabic for Politics and International Relations is the first textbook for high-intermediate to advanced students of Arabic that focuses on Arabic as it is used in the fields of politics, diplomacy, governance and international relations.

 

Thematically organised, each chapter includes a selection of authentic reading texts that exemplify the language in use while introducing students to a key topic or theme such as political systems, government, human rights, conflict resolution and defence. Each chapter has a range of exercises that include comprehension questions, questions designed to develop vocabulary, understanding of morphology, rhetoric and style, and a range of activities that allow students to practice all four language skills: reading, listening, speaking, and writing.

 

Arabic for Politics and International Relations is ideal for advanced-level Arabic courses.
