The first comprehensive history of the 1921 Cairo Conference which reveals its enduring impact on the modern Middle East Called by Winston Churchill in 1921, the Cairo Conference set out to redraw the map of the Middle East in the wake of the First World War and the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. The summit established the states of Iraq and Jordan as part of the Sherifian Solution and confirmed the establishment of a Jewish homeland in Palestine—the future state of Israel. No other conference had such an enduring impact on the region. C. Brad Faught demonstrates how the conference, although dominated by the British with limited local participation, was an ambitious, if ultimately unsuccessful, attempt to move the Middle East into the world of modern nationalism. Faught reveals that many officials, including T. E. Lawrence and Gertrude Bell, were driven by the determination for state building in the area to succeed. Their prejudices, combined with their abilities, would profoundly alter the Middle East for decades to come.

L’invenzione del Medio Oriente è l’appassionante e dettagliato resoconto della conferenza che si tenne nel 1921 in Egitto per decidere il futuro dell’ampia regione rimasta libera dal giogo ottomano. È il racconto di come Winston Churchill, al tempo ministro delle Colonie, affrontò la sfida dei nascenti nazionalismi e di quanto quelle decisioni plasmarono il Medio Oriente nei termini geopolitici con i quali siamo ancora chiamati a confrontarci. La missione affidata a Churchill era semplice: consolidare il dominio degli inglesi sull’area con il minore dispendio possibile di risorse finanziarie. Per ottenere tale risultato, il ministro delle Colonie si avvalse, tra gli altri, di due esperti: il tenente colonnello Thomas Edward Lawrence (il famoso Lawrence d’Arabia) e l’archeologa Gertrude Bell, entrambi agenti dell’intelligence britannica sul territorio durante il conflitto mondiale. In dieci giorni di incontri venne dunque messa a punto la strategia di controllo dell’intera regione, con la creazione dell’Iraq e della Transgiordania, assegnando la guida dei nuovi Stati a dinastie locali e mantenendo cosí le promesse fatte agli arabi in tempo di guerra. Quanto alla Palestina, già segretamente «assegnata» ai britannici fin dal 1916, era legata in modo indissolubile anche alla popolazione ebraica, cui gli inglesi, tramite la Dichiarazione Balfour, avevano promesso, nel 1917, la creazione di un «focolare nazionale» nella zona. Con questa prospettiva, il man - dato della Palestina sarebbe stato diviso in due parti: una a ovest del fiume Giordano, nella quale si sarebbe favorita l’immigrazione ebraica, circostanza già accettata dall’emiro Faysal nel 1919, e l’altra a est, l’attuale Giordania, all’interno della quale i contenuti della Dichiarazione Balfour non sarebbero stati applicati. Quella scelta gettò i semi della futura questione israelo-palestinese, che perdura ancora oggi. Furono gli esperti riuniti nell’elegante Semiramis Hotel del Cairo, sotto la guida di Winston Churchill e alla presenza di Lawrence d’Arabia, a ridisegnare l’odierna mappa del Medio Oriente. «C. Brad Faught ha ricostruito in maniera mirabile l’atmosfera di quei negoziati diplomatici che hanno segnato la storia del Novecento». Arie M. Dubnov, History Today «Un resoconto piacevolmente chiaro e diretto della Conferenza del Cairo del 1921 che ha plasmato il Medio Oriente come lo conosciamo oggi». David Stafford
