Title: Saudi Arabia embraces Salafism : countering the Arab uprising?
Author: Dorsey, James M.
Copyright year: 2012
Abstract: Saudi Arabia has openly embraced Salafism as its official ideology to shield itself and its fellow conservative Gulf monarchies from the wave of anti-government revolts sweeping the Middle East and North Africa. This counter-revolutionary strategy is a gamble with wider repercussions beyond the kingdom.
