Bag om Joyriding in Riyadh

Why do young Saudis, night after night, joyride and skid cars on Riyadh's avenues? Who are those 'drifters' who defy public order and private property? Based on four years of fieldwork, Joyriding in Riyadh explores the history and social fabric of Riyadh, as well as that of Saudi Arabia, and shows how car drifting is embedded in Saudi Arabia's social violence and economic inequality.
