Description: Britain and Japan in the 1973 Middle East Oil Crisis : Washington’s Silent Partners, Hardcover by Miller, Erika, ISBN 1032054077, ISBN-13 9781032054070, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US "Miller examines Britain and Japan's involvement in the Middle East peace process after the October war of 1973 and how it contributed to the resolution of the oil crisis of 1. Using important primary sources from Japan, Britain, and the United States-including recently declassified Japanese documents that had not previously been examined-this book contends that previous literature failed to address the important role of Britain and Japan and their political impact on the development in the historical events of 1973 and 1974. The two countries threw their support behind the US, backing its policies regarding not only oil but also the Arab-Israeli conflict. This enabled the United States to take the lead in the peace process as well as in discussions to resolve the energy crisis, which eventually led to the establishment of the International Energy Agency (IEA).
