This work only study that deals directly and comprehensively with the entirety of US-Iran arms relations during the reign of the Shah. The research posits that a failure to analyse arms issues in any detail has hindered any true understanding of U.S.-Iran relations prior to 1979, and has therefore omitted a key factor in the Cold War geopolitics of the Middle East. Adding this layer of analysis is not just historical, it provides insight into the major U.S. Cold War policy shifts that followed the Iranian Revolution - such as the Carter Doctrine and Reagan's decision to go on the offensive against the Soviet Union. Put simply, those policies bore a direct relation to the failure of outsourcing containment in the Middle East via arms sales and security relationships with allies such as the Shah. In that sense, arming Iran was the grand test of the Nixon doctrine. And, it became its grand failure.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eStephen Thomas Mcglinchey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/b\u003eRoutledge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/b\u003eJun 03, 2014\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eNumber of Pages: \u003c\/b\u003e194 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/b\u003eEnglish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eBinding: \u003c\/b\u003eHardcover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-10: \u003c\/b\u003e0415739217\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/b\u003e9780415739214\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48932925636913,"sku":"9780415739214","price":211.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/8215\/8385\/files\/9780415739214.jpg?v=1713693367","url":"https:\/\/www.recomparo.com\/products\/9780415739214","provider":"ReComparo.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
