UP TO NO GOOD: THE POT CALLS THE KETTLE BLACK. 
A REVIEW OF BRITISH HOME OFFICE ADVICE ON KUWAIT, 2014.

Susan Kennedy

This article examines a review of British Home Office Advice on Kuwait, 2014.  In the review, Claire Beaugrand called for the removal of the term ‘ethnicity’ in reference to the historical basis of Bedoun asylum claims, persecution on the basis of ethnic identity.  Previously, this had been stated as the primary source of claims in the Home Office advice.  I discuss Beaugrand’s recommendation as a flawed analysis of the identity of the Bedoun in Kuwait, from the perspective of theoretical and methodological approaches to the Bedoun.  I introduce the notion that the marginalisation of the Bedoun in Kuwait society is reflective of marginalisation of the Bedouin majority population in Kuwait at the level of social interactions and also in relation to the historical production of knowledge about Bedouin identity and culture throughout the Middle East.  The concept of ‘documented’ and ‘undocumented’ stateless people is discussed, and its relevance to the Bedoun’s lived experience.  The use of the terms ‘ethnic,’ ‘tribal’ and ‘race’ by academics in regard to the Bedoun as Bedouin (Arabian tribal people) is also clarified.
