First Tuesdays Series: Rashid Khalidi Author of Sowing Crisis: The Cold War and American Dominance in the Middle East (Beacon Press)
This monthly series hosted by author and activist Mark Crispin Miller features authors whose books tackle political and public issues from a stance outside the mainstream. In Sowing Crisis, Rashid Khalidi, "the foremost US historian of the modern Middle East" (L.A. Times), dissects the crucial dynamics of power in the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union as it played out in the Middle East, compellingly arguing that the intense rivalry between the US and the USSR in the region set the stage for the tragic conflicts that have followed in its long wake.
