Douglas Little is well known in US diplomatic history circles for his work on US foreign policy towards the Middle East. Us versus them is in many ways an update and extension to his earlier work on American orientalism (Chapel Hill: University of North Carolina Press, 2003), maintaining the same broad framework derived from Edward Said's monumental Orientalism (Routledge, 1978). In US diplomatic history, the attention given to Islamism and the Middle East has grown steadily since the publication of Bernard Lewis's ‘The roots of Muslim rage’ in the Atlantic in September 1990 and Samuel Huntington's Clash of civilizations (New York: Simon and Schuster, 1997). Obviously the arguments for and against these theses were accelerated and compounded by the attacks on the United States in September 2001. The subsequent wars in, particularly, Iraq and Afghanistan have enhanced the framework, as has the Occidentalism associated with much of the rhetoric, beliefs and opinion in the region. Thus studies on anti-Americanism have also increased significantly since 9/11
