| Book Description | US foreign policy in the Middle East has faced a challenge in the years since World War II: balancing an idealistic desire to promote democracy against the practical need to create stability. Here, Cleo Bunch puts a focus on US policy in Jordan from the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948 to 1970 and the run up to 'Black September'. These years saw a phase where the Middle East became a stage on which Cold War rivalries were played out, as the US was keen to encourage and maintain alliances in order to counteract Soviet influence in Egypt and Syria. Bunch's analysis of US foreign policy and diplomacy vis-a-vis Jordan will appeal to those researching both the history and the contemporary implications of the West's foreign policy in the Middle East and the effects of international relations on the region. |
| Editorial Review | This book is deeply researched and multi-archival, in addition to Clea Lutz Hupp being one of the few specialists in command of the Arabic language, she is solidly in command of the secondary literature. The book is well written and a major and valuable contribution to the historiography of the field. Tore T. Petersen- Professor of History, Faculty of Humanities, Department of History and Classical Studies, Norwegian University of Science and Technology. |
