This article analyses whether recent trends of economic liberalisation might give an impulse to regionalisation. This is done by focusing on the 'double assignment' of the bourgeoisie: curbing state autonomy and acting as the 'championing social class' whose specific interests coincide with the prospect of larger unified market. The article concludes that the author can not expect Arab regional economic integration to be spurred on. (DSE/DÜI)
