The Cold War has been researched in minute detail and written about
at great length but it remains one of the most elusive and
enigmatic conflicts of modern times. With the ending of the Cold
War, it is now possible to review the entire post-war period, to
examine the Cold War as history. The Middle East occupies a special
place in the history of the Cold War. It was critical to its birth,
its life and its demise. In the aftermath of the Second World War,
it became one of the major theatres of the Cold War on account of
its strategic importance and its oil resources. The key to the
international politics of the Middle East during the Cold War era
is the relationship between external powers and local powers. Most
of the existing literature on the subject focuses on the policies
of the Great Powers towards the local region. The Cold War and the
Middle East redresses the balance by concentrating on the policies
of the local actors. It looks at the politics of the region not
just from the outside in but from the inside out. The contributors
to this volume are leading scholars in the field whose interests
combine International Relations and Middle Eastern Studies.
