- Summary
- "Turkey and Israel are two of the most important countries in the Middle East, but also are outsiders to the region for political and cultural reasons. Here Bengio examines the historic, geostrategic, and political-cultural roots of the Turkish-Israeli relationship, from the 1950s until today. Linking the relationship's evolution to the complexities of Turkey's historical ties with the Arab world, and changing domestic, regional, and global conditions, this book traces the ebb and flow of the curious ties between the two countries. Bengio calls for a significant revision in the received wisdom about inter-Arab and Arab-Israeli conflicts and rivalries, placing Turkey in a more central role.
- The book approaches Middle Easter affairs from inside the region, based on Turkish, Israeli, and Arab sources, providing a much-needed corrective to American- and British-centered accounts."--Jacket.
