The book explores the emergence of a liberal middle class in the Arab Middle East during the early twentieth century, highlighting their roles as professionals, journalists, and businessmen. It examines how this group contributed to the development of civil society, new political frameworks, and intellectual movements while engaging with colonialism. Through this lens, the author connects the evolution of modernity in the region to the social and political dynamics shaped by these emerging middle-class figures.
