Pan-Syrian nationalism - the dream of creating a Greater Syria out of what is now Syria, Lebanon, Israel, Jordan, and a part of Turkey - has profoundly, if quietly, affected Middle Eastern politics since the end of the First World War. This is the first full account of Pan-Syrian nationalism and its role in Middle Eastern politics. The book provides the historical context for understanding such important political episodes as the Syrian occupation of Lebanon and its confrontation with Israel.
