| Abstract
|
:
|
Rapid and radical socioeconomic transformations have accompanied the development of the hydrocarbon-exporting economies of the Arab Gulf states. The six Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states are some of the largest recipients of labor migrants in the world, and the region has the second highest rate of urbanization in the world. Given these changes, it is critical to understand the urban impacts of migration flows that have dramatically increased the proportion of foreigners in the cities of the Gulf.
