Britain's Revival and Fall in the Gulf : Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, and the Trucial States, 1950-71, Hardback Book

Britain's Revival and Fall in the Gulf : Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, and the Trucial States, 1950-71 Hardback

Part of the Routledge Studies in the Modern History of the Middle East series

Hardback

Description

Britain's relationship with the Gulf region remains one of the few unexplored episodes in the study of British decolonization.

The decision, announced in 1968, to leave the Gulf within three years represented an explicit recognition by Britain that its 'East of Suez' role was at an end.

This book examines the decision-making process which underpinned this reversal and considers the interaction between British decision-making, and local responses and initiatives, in shaping the modern Gulf.

Using sources previously unavailable to scholars, Britain's Revival and Fall in the Gulf is a valuable addition to the studies on the modern Gulf.
