Beschreibung
Based upon extensive archival research in Great Britain, the United States, and the Middle East, including sources never previously utilized such as declassified intelligence records, postwar planning documents, and the personal papers of key officials, this is painstakingly researched account of the origins of American involvement in the Middle East during the Presidency of Franklin D. Roosevelt. It explores the effort to challenge British and French power, and the building of new relationships with Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and the Levant states. It also reveals new and controversial discoveries about Roosevelt's views on Palestine, his relations with Middle East leaders, and his often bitter conflicts with Churchill and de Gaulle over European imperialism. Modern-day parallels make this story compelling for followers of current events, World War II, Franklin Roosevelt, the Middle East, or British imperialism.

Über den Autor
CHRISTOPHER D. O'SULLIVAN teaches History and International Studies at the University of San Francisco, USA and was recently a Fulbright visiting professor at the University of Jordan. His books include Colin Powell: American Power and Intervention From Vietnam to Iraq (2009); Sumner Welles, Postwar Planning, and the Quest for a New World Order (2008) which won the American Historical Association's Gutenberg-e Prize; and The United Nations: A Concise History (2005).
Zusammenfassung

BIG PICTURE: Others have explored U.S. policy towards the individual states of the Middle East during the Second World War or U.S. diplomacy with the eroding British Empire in these years, but O'Sullivan's approach permits us to see more clearly the bigger picture of Allied statesmanship in the region and the important themes that connected U.S. policies there

THOROUGHLY RESEARCHED: The book is grounded in O'Sullivan's thorough and judicious reading of archival material

NEW INSIGHTS: O'Sullivan argues that Franklin Roosevelt and his advisers attempted to establish a New Deal for the Middle East and to build a variant of the Good Neighbor Policy as tools with which to secure the allegiance of local governments
