Arab Manpower (Rle Economy of Middle East): The Crisis of Development
ISBN: 9781138820029 / Angielski / Miękka / 390 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

It forecasts the areas of... The Arab world increasingly falls into two divisions, the capital-poor and the capital-rich countries (where capital means, in essence, oil). In th... |
