Infos

Even though Saudi Arabia has taken a zero-tolerance approach to ISIL, the Kingdom undermines whatever good work it does by continuing to spend billions of dollars spreading Wahhabism, its ultraconservative brand of Islam - polling data suggesting that support for ISIL in Saudi Arabia hovers around 5%; representing over a half a million potential donors to ISIL. Also, Saudi Arabia's human rights record remains among the worst in the world, with pressure on Saudi Arabia over the detention and treatment of political prisoners having grown in 2019: Female activists being subjected to electric shocks, lashings and sexual harassment in custody, in a crackdown ordered by King Salman's heir, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who was also responsible for the murder of the dissident journalist Jamal Khashoggi. Hence this book endeavours to improve public policy in Saudi Arabia; by exploring both social scientific and Islamic approaches, so that human rights and human dignity can finally be manifested in the Kingdom.
