Examining the triangular relationship between Iran, Britain and the Gulf Arab shaykhdoms, this is the first book to investigate the origins of the present-day Arab-Iranian conflict in the interwar period, filling a gap in the literature on the history of Arab-Iranian relations in the Gulf and Iran's Persian Gulf policy during Reza Shah's rule.
The interwar period marked a transition from a Gulf society characterized by symbiosis and interdependency to a sub-region characterized by national divisions, sectarian suspicions, rivalries and political tension. In this study, Chelsi Mueller tells the story of a formative period in the Gulf, examining the triangular relationship between Iran, Britain and the Gulf Arab shaykhdoms. By doing so Mueller reveals how the revival of Iranian national ambitions in the Gulf had a significant effect on the dense web of Arab-Iranian relations during the interwar period. Shedding new light on our current understanding of the present-day Arab-Iranian conflict, this study, which pays particular attention to Bahrain and the Trucial states (United Arab Emirates), fills a significant gap in the literature on the history of Arab-Iranian relations in the Gulf and Iran's Persian Gulf policy during the Reza Shah period.

Chelsi Mueller is research fellow in the Moshe Dayan Center for Middle Eastern and African Studies and the Alliance Center for Iranian Studies at Tel Aviv University, where she lectures on conflict and conflict resolution. She is the author of numerous articles in scholarly journals including Iranian Studies, the Journal of Arabian Studies, Middle Eastern Studies, the British Journal of Middle Eastern Studies, and the Asian Journal of Middle Eastern and Islamic Studies.
