Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During World War II, the United States and the United Kingdom cooperated in the successful operation of a regional organization which indisputably saved the Middle East for the Allied cause and which, if perpetuated, might have formed the basis for regional peace and stability. This was the Middle East Supply Centre, whose creation, evolution, responsibilities, and activities are described analytically in this volume. It was an agency, says the author, "bestriding the Middle East economy like a giant and imposing its views and wishes on the production and consumption of nearly 100 million people toiling in a vast sub-continent." Even in the midst of global war, M.E.S.C. not only supervised the feeding of the people of the region, but also assured that industries kept producing and that the economy poured out large quantities of munitions and quartermaster items for Allied armies in the Middle East and beyond. At the end of the war, diverse proposals were made to convert M.E.S.C. into a "regional bureau" that would bring the wartime seeds of regional cooperation to permanent flowering for betterment and peace in the Middle East under the United Nations, under Anglo-American sponsorship, or under the Middle East countries themselves. Failure to obtain American participation resulted in the collapse of these efforts and M.E.S.C. was dissolved in November 1945. Beyond the author's narrative and analysis of the Centre's wartime logistical activities, he has placed the whole enterprise in a far larger setting: Anglo-American collaboration: the imperious influence of world powers; the aspirations of underdeveloped nations; and the growth in the area of "economic regionalism." Commander Sir Robert Jackson, wartime Director General of the Centre who now holds appointments with several governments in the Third World and is also Senior Consultant to the United Nations Development Programme, has written the foreword for the book, in which he views the activities--and the legacy--of the Centre from the perspective of more than 25 years.

Book excerpt: This book. The subtitle of the book summarizes its content: (The Western Efforts in Building the Iraqi State). The book is a survey of the time period (1914–1958) in Iraq, highlighting the first steps in building the institutions of the Iraqi state, including education, health, transportation, agriculture, irrigation, survey, internal security, and others. The book follows the process of transferring administration from the hands of the British to the Iraqis, and from the military to the civilian side. The book is a panorama of the most prominent Western advisors, including persons, missions, and companies that contributed alongside the Iraqis in building this state. The book examines the Anglo-American and international institutions that formed the advisory basis for the Iraqi Development Board, which represents the pinnacle of development in that country. The book is an excavation of Western civilization in Mesopotamia, and a large part of these antiquities was contributed by Iraqi people in a fundamental and effective way, such as dams, factories, farms, and hospitals, whether they were engineers, doctors, workers, or farmers.
