Britain and State Formation in Arabia 1962–1971
Half a century ago, Britain abandoned Aden, its last colonial outpost in the Arab world as its attempt to establish a new polity foundered amid a rising tide of Arab nationalism, tribal infighting and anti-colonial sentiment that eventually gave rise to the establishment of South Yemen. Yet just over three years later in 1971, a new state, the United Arab Emirates, emerged in Arabia, formed from the old Trucial states over which Britain had long held sway. At a time when state failure and fragmentation has become synonymous with much of the Middle East and where the very idea of sovereignty and legitimacy have become contested issues, this comparative historical study of the varied British attempts at state creation on the Arabian peninsula offers important insights into the limits of external ambition, as well as the possibilities that great power retrenchment offered to the peoples of the region. The legacy of British influence in Aden and Abu Dhabi still very much resonates today; this volume explains why. This book was originally published as a special issue of Middle Eastern Studies.

The end of the Cold War has brought the foreign policy of the United States under close scrutiny. The old tension between isolationism and internationalism that has always framed debates over foreign policy in Washington has found new expression in debates over unilateralism and multilateralism. Proponents of these two schools of thought seek to influence a hierarchy of values over what constitutes the 'national interest.' The debate offers interesting insights into determinants of US policy towards the Gulf. It is easy to define US interests in the Gulf, but it is more difficult to identify the means or policies that may best serve to secure these interests. A marked reluctance to incur cas...
