Mayhew's outcasts’: Anti-Zionism and the Arab lobby in Harold Wilson's Labour Party
This article examines the emergence of a vocal and influential pro-Palestinian campaign within the Labour Party in the 1960s and 1970s. In particular, it focuses upon the work of the Labour Middle East Council established by Christopher Mayhew in 1969. The article argues that Mayhew succeeded in laying the foundations for a network of pro-Palestinian organizations in the 1980s but that the note of anti-Zionist radicalism which he introduced provi…
Keep Left for Israel’: Tribune , Zionism and the Middle East, 1937–1967
This article provides the first detailed analysis of Tribune's approach to Zionism and the Arab-Israeli conflict from the year of the socialist weekly newspaper's establishment in 1937 through to the period of the 1967 ‘Six Day’ war.

The article argues that the debate inspired by Tribune's …
Searching for a Cultural Diplomacy
Recent studies on the meaning of cultural diplomacy in the twentieth century often focus on the United States and the Cold War, based on the premise that cultural diplomacy was a key instrument of foreign policy in the nation’s effort to contain the Soviet Union. As a result, the term “cultural diplomacy” has become one-dimensional, linked to political manipulation and subordination and relegated to the margin of diplomatic interactions. This vol…

Equal Partners?: Propaganda, Anglo-American Rivalry and the Nationalist Challenge
The challenge of Arab nationalism was among the most troublesome issues with which Western propagandists operating in the post-war Middle East had to deal. The post-war consolidation of an anti-colonial political culture across the Middle East struck directly at the traditional foundations of British influence, heightened Anglo-American tensions and provided Western Cold War strategists with a major policy headache. Interpreting these issues diff…

A Certain Idea of Britain’: British Cultural Diplomacy in the Middle East, 1945–57
During the formative years of the Cold War, cultural diplomacy and 'national projection' came to occupy an important place in British policy towards the Middle East. The British Council and the official overseas information services sought to mobilise pro-democracy committees, education and exchange programmes, commercial magazine publishing and book distribution as well as the British film industry in a bid to bolster British prestige and facili…
Cloak Without Dagger’: 1 How the Information Research Department Fought Britain's Cold War in the Middle East, 1948–56
In 1948, the Foreign Office's Information Research Department (IRD) embarked upon a global anti-Soviet and anti-communist propaganda war. Drawing upon recently declassified records, this article investigates IRD's Middle Eastern Cold War. Outlining IRD's operational methods and the activities in which it engaged, it concludes that although IRD's Middle Eastern operation before the 1956 Suez Crisis must ultimately be regarded as a failure, the fre…
