The Shaping Influence of the United States in the Middle East and the Importance of Historical Perspective

In Someone Else's Empire Tom Stevenson, a contributing editor at the LRB, dispels the potent myth of Britain as a global player punching above its weight on the world stage, arguing instead that its foreign policy has for a long time been in thrall to the wishes and interests of the United States.

He talks about his book with writer, filmmaker, publisher and activist Tariq Ali.
