Crossing the Rubicon : Ronald Reagan and US Policy in the Middle East PDF
by Nicholas Laham
- Information
Description
This insightful work explores one of the under-examined eras of US foreign policy toward the Palestinian question: the Reagan years.
The Reagan tenure is often perceived as one of disengagement from the region, especially in the aftermath of the bombing in Lebanon.
Nicholas Laham contends that this is not so and that the Reagan administration set the tone for US policy for the next two decades.
Specifically the work analyzes the nexus between domestic actors and US foreign policy toward the Arab-Israeli conflict.
Employing significant archival materials, the book probes in detail the machinations which produced new policies and new policy priorities during this era.
This study is provocative but the arguments are well-supported and solid, thus offering a major contribution to the literature.
The work will prove a valuable reference tool on the Reagan presidency, the Palestinian conflict, the Middle East and international relations more generally in light of the 2001 terrorist attacks, the war with Iraq and the continuing ramifications of the Arab-Israeli conflict.
