This bibliography is a result of a quarter-century professional and personal relationship between two academics interested in Middle East studies. Both have had practical and academic experience with the subject matter of this volume.
The goal to produce a comprehensive bibliography was facilitated by the use of the personal computer with its formation and storage capability combined with the ease of word processing. Moreover, developments in software, and especially the availability of Pro-Cite, a bibliographic management system from Professional Bibliographic Software, Inc. of Ann Arbor, Michigan, greatly reduced the complexity and difficulty of working with massive numbers of citations.
This bibliography consists of western, primarily English, language sources published through 1988 and early 1989 concerning foreign policy toward the Middle East and North Africa during the twentieth century. There are occasional citations of materials from an earlier period when it was deemed appropriate by virtue of its author or because it provided valuable background on a subject of later chronological relevance. We have included materials that deal directly with the subject of the bibliography and, generally, material that has appeared in published form, i.e. books, monographs, essays, and articles. Also included are some non-published items, most importantly American and British doctoral dissertations and master's theses, along with the order numbers, when available, from the standard repository, University Microfilms International of Ann Arbor, Michigan. There is also federal government sponsored or funded research available at the National Technical Information Service (NTIS) in Springfield, Virginia. The recent trend which makes available government documents and document collections in microform and microfiche format has led us to include useful materials in this format where appropriate.
All scholarly research depends to some degree on the use of libraries; bibliographic research is certainly no exception. We are, therefore, grateful to a host of academic and professional libraries and in particular to their staffs for their assistance in our efforts. These repositories include the libraries and, again, the professional staffs of The American University, Arizona State University, Catawba College, Davidson College, Duke University, East Carolina University, George Washington University, The University of Michigan, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, The University of North Carolina at Charlotte, The University of North Carolina at Greensboro, Salem College, The University of South Carolina, The University of Virginia, and Wake Forest University as well as the Library of Congress and the State of New York Library.
In an effort of this scope and magnitude there may be inadvertant errors or omissions. If discovered we would appreciate comments and citations that were omitted or notices of materials forthcoming. Since "comprehensive" is a relative term especially when applied to a bibliography we recognize that there is always "just one more item" to add. It is our intention to include in a proposed supplement what we might have missed for some reason but which merited inclusion.
For the purposes of this bibliography, the Middle East and North Africa are defined as the region bounded by Turkey, Iran in the North and East, South Yemen in the South and Morocco in the West. This includes: The non-Arab states of Israel, Turkey, and Iran and the Arab states of Algeria, Bahrain, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, North Yemen, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, South Yemen, Sudan, Syria, Tunisia, and the United Arab Emirates. Geographically peripheral states such as Afghanistan, Pakistan, Ethiopia, Greece, Cyprus, Mauritania, Somalia and Djibouti are not included except where the work refers to other relationships between the United States and the states or issues included in this bibliography.
The United States relationship with the Middle East is long and rich. Its origins may be traced to the founding of the United States and the signing of a treaty between the United States and the Sultan of Morocco during the administration of President George Washington. There were extensive American negotiations with the Barbary pirates in the early diplomatic history of the United States. In general, though, early American links with the region were limited until the twentieth century and it is essentially in the period after World War II that the United States role became substantial.
