- This monograph presents an interdisciplinary thesis of extensive scope, innovatively engaging both international relations and nationalism theories. It connects Cold War history, postcolonial theory, and Middle East Studies literatures. Offering a rare comparison of two major Middle East states’ Cold War foreign policies, it assembles seldom-used primary sources from each, avoiding conventional reliance on US/UK sources. These include archival documents, unpublished pamphlets, radio transcripts, and interviews in Turkish, Arabic, English and French, gathered over four years. Access was difficult due to sources’ securitised and scattered nature, and interviewees’ age/rank. This effort generated the novel insights and arguments distinguishing this work.
