Beyond the Gulf War: The Middle East and the New World Order

This book is based upon the proceedings of a conference held in London on March 9 1991 on the theme 'Beyond the Gulf War'. The conference was organised by the Gulf Conference Committee on behalf of Media Workers Against the War. The MWAW had convened at the start of the Gulf War, bringing together hundreds of journalists and other media workers who were deeply concerned both by implications of the war and by the manipulation of news about it. Some material in this book were first presented at the Catholic Institute for International Relations, which held its own conference on the Middle East on 17 April.
