  • Title: The pattern of employment, migration and labour in the Gulf countries.
    Author: Beauge G, Sader M.
    Journal: Popul Bull ECWA; 1981 Dec; (21):85-103. PubMed ID: 12266240.
    Abstract:
    An analysis of the labor market in the oil-producing Arab countries of the Middle East is presented. The authors criticize the classical approach to labor market studies and develop a new approach based on the unique development situation of this region. Differences in employment patterns by nationality are noted. Attention is given to aspects of the evolution of this labor market, including the pre-capitalist employment market, the bureaucratic-tribal employment market, the free labor market, and the forced labor market. The need for specific policies to resolve the problems in this labor market is considered.
