Fred Halli day writes: the Arab Middle East is probably the most misunderstod of all regions; the one with the longest history of contact with the west; yet it is probably the one least understood. Part of the misunderstanding is due to the romantic mythology that has long appeared to shroud the deserts of the peninsula. Where old myths have broken down new ones have absorbed them or taken their place. Now the sheikh of Arabia has steeped down from his camel. Instead, through the delusive lens of the energy crisis he is seen to beriding a Cadillac and squeezing the powerless Western consumer of oil.
First published in the 1970 Arabia Without Sultans retains its validity for the present as it analyses the Arabian peninsula and Iran within the global context of western post-colonial strategy and the political economy of oil. Halliday offers a thorough study of the history the politics and the economics of this region in an ambitious, encompassing and entertaining manner.
This classic work remains indispensable for students academics, and all those who wish to have a greater understanding of the Arabian penisula.
Fred Halliday is professor of international relations at the London School of Economics. He is the author of many books, including the Making of the Second Cold War (1983), Rethinking International Relations (1994), Islan and the Myth of Confrontation (1996), Revolution and World politics (1999) and, Nation and Religion in the Middle East (2000), also published by Saqi Books.
