About the Author

AMIKAM NACHMANI is a lecturer in international relations at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.

Reviews

?Nachmani's expertise is on the eastern Mediterranean; he was written Israel, Turkey and Greece: Uneasy Relations in the East Mediterranean, and Great Power Discord in Palestine . In the present study, Nachmani seeks to place the Greek civil war within the context of the Cold War and the UN. He contends that had it not been internationalized, the civil war 'might have been shorter and its casualties fewer.' The UN Special Committee on the Balkans (UNSCOB) was designed to discourage direct foreign intervention in the civil war from Greece's northern border. Because these northern neighbors were communist states UNSCOB, in essence, was working on behalf of US Cold War objectives. Nachmani claims that UNSCOB was successful and perhaps it was, on a limited basis. The book is well documented, using UN archives and private papers.?-Choice
