| GCC Social Issues |
This portal covers the social affairs in the GCC countries and excludes politics and economics as there are pertinent pages which have been devoted for them. Therefore, it covers the other social aspects that are of special importance to the region, such as history, culture, migration, women, education and media. Under these main divisions, the portal also pursues other areas as community, deviant behavior, family, public opinion, social change, social mobility, social stratification, and problems such as crime, divorce, child abuse, and substance
addiction. Researchers in this area try to determine the laws governing human behavior in social contexts and in doing so provide in-depth insights to the society in the region. The portal provides enormous materials on the topics which range from theses, research, articles, books, surveys and reports to useful links and lists of experts, which makes it a useful site for all those concerned
