Book The United States  the Soviet Union and the Arab Israeli conflict  1948   67

Download or read book The United States the Soviet Union and the Arab Israeli conflict 1948 67 written by Joseph Heller and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2016-11-14 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Israel's relations with each of the superpowers was determined by global factors. The dilemma facing Israel was how to reconcile its interests with those of the United States, having failed to do so with the Soviet Union. Moreover, throughout the cold war the United States considered Israel a burden rather than an asset and had to accommodate support for Israel with keeping the Arab states within the western orbit. Partisan policy could have dealt a mortal blow to the fundamental assumption of American global strategy. Namely that the Middle East should not be allowed to become a cold war arena. The book shows how the fledgling state of Israel had to manoeuvre between the superpowers to survive.

Book The Arab Middle East and the United States

Download or read book The Arab Middle East and the United States written by Burton Ira Kaufman and published by Macmillan Reference USA. This book was released on 1996 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kaufman also details the impact of the cold war on U.S.-Arab relations. In his view, Washington's abiding concern with communist expansion after 1945 pervaded and perverted the U.S. approach to the Arab Middle East. Combined with the rise of Arab nationalism, Kaufman argues, the hardening of the cold war led to an American myopia regarding the Middle East that a more regional perspective might have avoided.

Book Soviet Strategy in the Middle East

Download or read book Soviet Strategy in the Middle East written by George W. Breslauer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-07-16 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few regions of the world are as politically turbulent as the Middle East, and nowhere is the potential for superpower conflict greater. How does the Soviet Union view the Middle east conflict? Can the USSR play a constructive role in the peace process? In this volume, first published in 1990, these questions and others central to an understanding of Soviet strategy in the region are addressed. Previous analysts of Soviet-Middle Eastern relations have tended to emphasize either the cooperative or the competitive aspects of Soviet behaviour. Breslauer instead offers the multidimensional concept of ‘collaborative competition’ to describe the mixed motives, ambivalence, and sometimes conflicting perspectives that have informed Soviet strategy in the region. In such an unstable environment. this strategy of collaborative competition has in turn encouraged ‘approach-avoidance’ behaviour; for example, while the Soviets may seek to moderate their radical allies, they remain fearful that these allies, once moderated, might defect to US patronage. Under Gorbachev, the Kremlin continues to pursue this same strategy but with increased attention to improving collaboration, redefining the nature of the competition, and easing the approach-avoidance dilemma. Breslauer argues that these changes could lead to more flexible Soviet behaviour in the region. This volume combines new, in-depth research on Soviet policy with new interpretations, including insights drawn from relevant theories of international relations.

Book The Decline Of The Soviet Union And The Transformation Of The Middle East

Download or read book The Decline Of The Soviet Union And The Transformation Of The Middle East written by David Howard Goldberg and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-06-26 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than three decades, the Soviet Union was a major force in the Middle East, and superpower rivalry exacerbated many of the conflicts endemic to the region. The end of the Cold War and the collapse of the Soviet Union have fundamentally altered the rules of the game in Middle East politics, producing a new fluidity in the region, new diplomatic alignments, and new opportunities for peace. The contributors place recent developments in historical and political context, analyzing changes in Soviet Middle East policy under Gorbachev as well as evaluating developments since the demise of the Soviet Union. The evolution of Moscow's policy toward the Arab states, Israel, the P.L.O., and the U.N. is given special attention. The contributors also examine the emergence of Islamic fundamentalism in the new states of Central Asia and weigh the potential implications of this development for the Middle East. In addition, they discuss security issues related to the transfer of military technology from former Soviet republics to the countries of the Middle East.

Book United States Foreign Policy in the Middle East

Download or read book United States Foreign Policy in the Middle East written by Syed-Amjad Ali and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soon after World War II the rivalry between the United States and the Soviet Union developed as the Cold War. Both powers attempted to extend their spheres of influence whilst at the same time accusing each other of creating instability and threatening world peace. The Middle East was one of the important regions where both attempted to increase their own influence and undermine that of their rival. The Middle East had long been under Western influence but the establishment of Isreal with Anglo-American support alienated the Arabs. The Isreali aspiration towards a purely Jewish state and their refusal, despite international pressure, to resettle Palestinian refugees was endorsed by the United States as necessary for Isreali security. The United States support for Isreal drove President Nasser to move towards the Eastern bloc which raised the temperature of great power rivalry in that zone and nearly led to direct confrontation in 1973. United States policy of containment was first threatened by the Czech-Egyptian arms deal of 1955 with unexpected revolutions in Iraq, in 1958, and Libya in 1969 giving the Soviet Union the opportunity to further develop their footing in the area. United States efforts to contain Soviet influence proved fruitless when the Arab states in the region refused to join in military alliances sponsored by the United States. United States policy was perceived as endorsing every Isreali move from making the Palestinians homeless in 1948 to the forceful evacuation of the P.L.O. from Lebanon in 1382. The United States was successful in so far as Egypt was removed from the Soviet orbit, but the Camp David agreement isolated Egypt from the rest of the Arab world. The Palestinian Problem remains unsolved and, so long as it remains, so also does the danger of direct confrontation between the super powers in this region.
