What Next for Britain in the Middle East? : Security, Trade and Foreign Policy after Brexit, Hardback Book

What Next for Britain in the Middle East? : Security, Trade and Foreign Policy after Brexit Hardback

Edited by Michael (RUSI, UK) Stephens, Christopher (Queen Mary, University of London, UK) Phillips

Hardback

Description

As the UK enters a period of intense public introspection in the wake of Brexit, this book takes on one of the key questions emerging from the divisive process: what is Britain’s place in the world?

The Middle East is one of the regions the UK has been most engaged in historically.

This book assesses the drivers of foreign policy successes and failures and asks if there is a way to revitalise British influence in the region, and if this is even desirable. The book analyses the values, trade and security concerns that drive the UK’s foreign policy.

There are separate chapters on the non- Arab powers – Israel, Turkey and Iran – as well as chapters on the Middle Eastern Arab states and regions including the Gulf, Iraq, Egypt, and Syria and the Levant.

The contributions are from leading specialists in the field: Rosemary Hollis, Michael Clarke, Ian Black, Bill Park, Christopher Phillips, Sanam Vakil, Michael Stephens and Louise Kettle.

They each explain and re-assess the declining western influence and continued instability in the region and what this means for the UK’s priorities and strategy towards the MENA.

This is an essential book for policy makers, journalists and researchers focused on foreign policy towards the Middle East.
