Verlagsinformation :: Publisher's information The Middle East in the 1970s was characterised by its conflicts, with a cast of political figures whose influence can still be felt today. Providing an invaluable resource for researchers and students seeking to understand the modern Middle East, this collection contains complete runs of Foreign Office files, providing an expansive view of key events and their global political impact. Users can explore the Arab-Israeli War, Henry Kissinger's "shuttle diplomacy" and the historic Camp David Accords that followed. The resource also examines internal conflicts, such as the uprising in Dhofar, the military coup in Cyprus, the Lebanese Civil War and the Iranian Revolution. Energy concerns dominate this resource, with reports on the oil policies of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Iraq, and how price hikes, embargoes and industrial strikes affected the G8's energy supply and economy. Additionally, users will be able to scrutinise policies on international arms sales. Annual reviews detail internal affairs, external political relationships and offer important economic analysis giving researchers a unique and detailed history of the region across the 1970s.
