Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book reflects on the geopolitical history of the Persian Gulf, and the economic and political forces that have shaped the region. Despite waning territorial ambitions, Great Britain played a central diplomatic role in the Gulf in the early 20th century, in an effort to uphold existing power structures and trade relationships. The book explores how these interventions have led to the emergence of new powers in the region and the conflicts that have arisen as a result. The author, travelling extensively through the Gulf, witnessed tensions between local rulers and European powers, documenting the continuing legacy of colonialism and the impact of economic and political change on local populations. This book is an insightful exploration of a region in geopolitical transition and provides valuable context for understanding present-day tensions.
