Description: Saddam's Word by Ofra Bengio Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Drawing from such resources as newspaper articles, official publications and Husseins public statements, speeches and writing, Saddams World uses language to examine the Bath regime and its leader, Saddam Hussein. This is a study of how speech and language influenced and shaped what became the political culture of modern Iraq. Publisher Description This is the first serious attempt to understand modern Iraq through a close examination of the political discourse used by the Bath regime and its leader, Saddam Hussein. By analyzing political terms, concepts, and idioms as disseminated through the official Iraqi mouthpieces, author Ofra Bengio illuminates Iraqs political culture and the events that these expressions have both reflected and shaped. Not only does this study add to our understanding of the "Saddamenigma;" it also offers a more universal truth: that under any regime, political culture is built on public discourse. Saddams Word will be of much interest to students of the contemporary MiddleEast, as well as to all other observers of Saddam Hussein and his regime. Author Biography Bengio is Senior Research Fellow at Moshe Dayan Center for Middle Eastern and African Studies at Tel Aviv University.
