Writings on generational throughout Arab history

Jamil's website states a number of works which he has published in Arabic, but he is mostly widely known for his work on his contribution of a new theory (known in Arabic as Arabic: المجايلة or "successive generational shifts") of historical development, in which successive generations shape the course of events over roughly periodic cycles of 30 years or (the estimated duration of a single generation).
