Edinburgh University Press Learning from the History of British Interventions in the Middle East
Learning from history helps states to create foreign and security policy that builds upon successes and avoids past mistakes. Louise Kettle’s insightful analysis – drawing on a wealth of previously unseen documents, sourced by Freedom of Information requests, together with interviews with government and intelligence agency officials – questions whether the British government actually learns from history. This is achieved through an extended commentary on military interventions in the Middle East since the 1950s, including a behind-the-scenes glimpse into Whitehall decision-making and a critical examination of the 2016 Iraq Inquiry report.
