By analyzing around 40 animation productions from Algeria, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, the Palestinian Territories, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Tunisia, and the United Arab Emirates, it demonstrates how rival notions of national, pan-Arab, and Islamic identities have been advocated, challenged, and fused by Arab animated cartoons.
