China's Foreign Policy In The Arab World, 1955-75 Av Hashim S.h. Behbehani

<P>China¿s foreign policy in the Arab world is important because it reflects China¿s general foreign policy. In this study, first published in 1981, the author draws upon a wealth of previously unpublished and inaccessible material to analyse Chinese attitudes in three cases: the two Arab liberation movements, the Palestine Resistance Movement and the Popular Front for the Liberation of the Oman, and the established and independent State of Kuwait.
