Bush to the presidency, as a critical factor in explaining the 2003 invasion of Iraq.Key FeaturesProvides a comprehensive analysis of US-Iraqi relations from 1979Demonstrates that the second Iraq War is a result of a longer historical process and not just the product of 9/11 and the War on TerrorDeepens understanding of the underlying factors of US policy towards the Persian Gulf, and its oilUses World Systems Theory to analyse US foreign policy" Mode of access: Internet via World Wide Web.
