The Cold War in the Middle East

Description

This volume is the glad result of a meeting held at Cumberland

Cabin, Windsor, somewhere in the range of 10 and 12 May 2006. It would not have been

conceivable without the liberal sponsorship of the Arts and Humanities

Examination Board of the United Kingdom, which gave three individuals from

the International History Department at the London School of Eco-

comics and Political Science drove by Arne Westad, and including Piers

Ludlow and myself, a five-year award in 2001 to investigate linkages

between the Cold War and provincial clashes somewhere in the range of 1965 and 1990.

Some portion of my own commitment to this task was the thought for a gathering

taking a gander at occasions in the Middle East somewhere in the range of 1967 and 1973 of which

this book is the outcome.
