- W2182505174 abstract "AbstractJordan's monarchy remains in power via several tactics including rent-seeking, omnibalancing, threat balancing, and creating and managing certain image in West via American television programs and Internet. The regime additionally seeks to create certain image amongst its constituents through various political campaigns that intend to appear serious about reforms without actually changing anything significant. All of Jordan's political maneuvering, branding, and image campaigns are critical in order for it to survive. They are just as critical as funds Jordan secures from US and GCC countries.IntroductionThe Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan has played an important role both in Middle East and on global stage. Jordan's significance results partly from its strategic location and partly from kingdom being an American ally. Unlike its Arab neighbors to south and east, Jordan has no oil of its own; its resources are limited to phosphates and agricultural produce. Its water sources are limited due to population inflows. The Jordanian economy is largely dependent on rentier income - whether in form of security and banking services, tourism, remittances, and above all foreign aid provided by Arab Gulf countries and United States. Modem Jordan is what is known as facade democracy, self-declared constitutional monarchy, but one in which real power resides within Palace. The Jordanian monarchy has been involved in various branding and public relations campaigns since its founding. Only modernity and new technology have changed way in which this branding process is carried out. Each monarch has carefully stage-managed his reign to keep himself on throne.The history of modern Jordan begins in twentieth century. The desert kingdom was recognized as a state under British supervision by Council of League of Nations in 1922 and in 1946 was recognized as an independent sovereign kingdom by United States and Britain. Jordan's first ruler, Hashemite Abdullah, was born in Mecca and played leading role in Great Arab Revolt against Ottomans. Thousands of Palestinians fleeing Arab-Israeli war arrived in Jordan in 1948, creating significant shift in population demographics that is still source of political and social tension today.* 1 The population increased from circa 435,000 people to 1.2 million people. In 1967, Jordan experienced another influx of Palestinian refugees after Israel annexed Jerusalem and West Bank. There was even third influx of Palestinians from Kuwait after second Gulf War, which is actually what brought Queen Rania to Jordan. Jordan and Israel signed peace treaty in 1994, terminating an official state of war that had endured for 46 years. Jordan and Egypt are only two Arab states to have made peace with Israel, policy that is unpopular amongst many Jordanians and other Arabs.King Hussein's eldest son, Abdullah II, succeeded to throne after his father's death in 1999. King Abdullah II has been in power ever since. His Palestinian wife, Queen Rania, is remarkably active in local, regional, and international politics and humanitarianism. King Abdullah II inherited extensive powers; king appoints cabinets, approves legislation, and can dissolve parliament. Jordan is linchpin monarchy, meaning that the king's political engagement is typically limited to overseeing country's political-strategic orientation while king stays away from details of everyday politics in order to maintain an 'above-the-fray' image.2The Jordanian political body is composed of several tribal, ethnical and religious groups: Jordanians, Palestinians, Circassians, Chechens, Christians, Muslims, with radicals, progressives and conservatives in each group. Each king has not only had to deal with diverse needs and interests of Jordanian population, but with needs and interests of neighboring countries and West as well. …" @default.
