Soft cover. Zustand: Good. 1st Edition. Illustrated wraps superimposing the traditional city gate and newly built Kuwait Towers 15x22cm. Printed at the Times Press, Kuwait. 162, (2)pp Arabic text including b/w photos, maps and charts. Good with creasing to wraps, inscription to title page, and some ink underlining in text. This looks into the nature of Kuwait's urban development and factors affecting it including the role of Kuwait Municipality; and an assessment of planning (Jacob Taisi's report, preparations for the Master Plan, the original and amended National and Structural Plan, and comparison). It finds that the very fast rate of development was due to factors outside the planning framework. This related to the exploitation of oil revenues and immigration which took place at a time when Kuwait did not have adequate institutions in place to control it. This happened to such an extent that planning soon became redundant, failing in particular to project immigration and population growth effectively, leading to problems in housing, congestion, etc, which need to be addressed. The maps show the development of Kuwait since the 18th Century, including its districts, the wall and its gates.…

Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. A joint study by the Geography Departments of Kuwait University and the University of Baghdad, attempting to describe present day Kuwaiti society and how it came about. Printed in Beirut by Dar Al-Qalam. Original printed wraps 17x24cm. 157, (1)pp Arabic text, with b/w maps, charts and data tables. Wraps about very good, lightly worn. Interiors very good with presentation ink stamp to the half title, and author's inscription to the title. This seminal study was motivated by the huge influx of other Arab and foreign workers into Kuwait prompted by the oil and development boom, and the need to take account of this in urban and social planning. Large scale immigration began to meet a pressing need, when Kuwait was still a simple traditional society lacking the administrative and technical agencies to support local development plans. It continued as Kuwait began to experience rapid fundamental social, psychological, economic and political change and growing wealth. Most came from other Arab countries, and the rest primarily from elsewhere in Asia notably Iran, India and Pakistan. Immigrants took up employment in construction and services. At the time of the 1st and 2nd Censuses (1957, 1961) immigrant and Kuwaiti populations were roughly equal. This had changed by the 1980 Census, with the immigrant population nearing 60% of total, and the authors were anticipating it to remain at around 60% for years to come. Their examination of the interaction and mutual influence between Kuwaitis and non-Kuwaitis covers the motives, causes and sources of migration. In comparison with Kuwaitis, they look at immigrants' demographic features, professional composition, socio-economic characteristics, their match to skills needed, distribution in particular neighbourhoods (with maps), housing types and conditions, crowding issues etc. Inscribed by Author(s).…
