Changing Qatar

Changing Qatar

Geoff Harkness

New York University Press

pokkari
A cultural study of modern Qatar and how it navigates change and tradition Qatar, an ambitious country in the Arabian Gulf, grabbed headlines as the first Middle Eastern nation selected to host the FIFA World Cup. As the wealthiest country in the world—and one of the fastest-growing—it is known for its capital, Doha, which boasts a striking, futuristic skyline. In Changing Qatar, Geoff Harkness takes us beyond the headlines, providing a fresh perspective on modern-day life in the increasingly visible Gulf. Drawing on three years of immersive fieldwork and more than a hundred interviews, he describes a country in transition, one struggling to negotiate the fluid boundaries of culture, tradition, and modernity. Harkness shows how Qataris reaffirm—and challenge—traditions in many areas of everyday life, from dating and marriage, to clothing and humor, to gender and sports. A cultural study of citizenship in modern Qatar, this book offers an illuminating portrait that cannot be found elsewhere.

By European law, this isthe only pasty that can be called a Cornish Pasty and even then onlyif it is made in Cornwall. So, unless you happen to live in Cornwall, you will just have tocall it something else. If you insist on calling it a Cornish Pastryand one day two burly tin miners with strange accents show up onyour doorstep, all I can say is, "You were warned " What's a Cornish Pasty, you may ask? Well, the official one is muchlike a meat pie, but you can hold it in your hand and the pastrywill hold together. It's much the same for the variations I haveprovided in this cookbook, although I didn't stop at just meat pies, there's also fruit pies, vegetarian pies and many other versions.The list of recipe names below will give you a good idea. My mother's pasty recipe was different, so I included that as theUnofficial Cornish Pasty Appetizers. But there is so much more youcan do, and I have done, with the pasty idea that I thought youmight like to try some of the variations I've come up with over theyears.

Jack Mawgan, a successful homicide detective, abandons his police career to become a paramedic but his instincts for solving violent crime prove impossible to leave behind. In his first case in this new role a millionaire businessman from Glasgow is assassinated at his home in Cornwall. The killer's trail leads to an aristocratic crook and his henchman who both have much blood on their hands. Jack attends the murder scene in his new role as ambulance technician but it leads to a life threatening situation for him, his family and his friends that is only resolved after more murder and mayhem. (This story is built around real places, real people and real events, but the plot and characters in the book are entirely fictional.)
