Learning from the History of British Interventions in the Middle East Paperback / softback
by Louise Kettle
Paperback / softback
Description
Learning from history helps states to create foreign and security policy that builds upon successes and avoids past mistakes.
Louise Kettle's insightful analysis - drawing on a wealth of previously unseen documents, sourced by Freedom of Information requests, together with interviews with government and intelligence agency officials - questions whether the British government actually learns from history.
This is achieved through an extended commentary on military interventions in the Middle East since the 1950s, including a behind-the-scenes glimpse into Whitehall decision-making and a critical examination of the 2016 Iraq Inquiry report.
