  • Title: [The weight of immigration in Saudi Arabia].
    Author: De Klebnikoff S.
    Journal: Afr Asie Mod; 1982; (134):79-101, 112. PubMed ID: 12233432.
    Abstract:
    The social, political, and economic implications of the immigrant presence in Saudi Arabia are explored. The author notes that about one-third of the population of the country is made up of working nonnationals. The tensions that exist are examined, with reference to the exclusion of the migrants from Saudi Arabian society and the extreme imbalance in the sex ratio caused by predominately male migration. The author suggests that dependence on migrant labor is likely to increase rather than decrease as Saudi nationals are oriented toward nontechnical studies and Saudi women are excluded from the labor force.
