Abstract:

This thesis offers a microcosmic insight into Britain's transition toward a world system without an Empire by exploring the life of the Anglo-Jordan Treaty (1946-57) via the prism of the British financed Jordanian Army, also known as the Arab Legion, and its British commander, Glubb Pasha. In so doing it puts the state of the relationship down to a system of mutual dependence. Britain's withdrawal from Jordan has primarily been linked either to the success of Arab nationalism or the loss of British will. By examining the Treaty relationship from construction to termination this thesis posits t

Abstract:

Abstract Jordan had a winding 400-mile border with Israel. A fourth of the country, the West Bank, was occupied by Palestinians. The Jordanian army, known as the Arab Legion, was led by a British officer, General Sir John Glubb. Despite British historic support, including vital economic assistance, King Hussein dismissed Glubb on 1 March 1956. As a result, Hussein’s popularity as an Arab leader soared to unprecedented heights. Prime Minister Anthony Eden reeled in dismay. At a single stroke, one of Britain’s principal allies had suddenly broken historic bonds. Eden erroneously saw Gamal Abdel

Abstract:

Abstract On 1 March 1956, King Hussein dismissed Lieutenant General John Bagot Glubb, chief of the general staff of the Arab Legion.1 With him were dismissed Glubb’s closest assistants, Colonel W. M. Hutton, his chief of staff, and Colonel Sir Patrick Coghill, director of General Intelligence. Also, eight British commanding officers were suspended, apparently those who had been most active in suppressing the riots in January. The British government ordered all the remaining British officers in executive positions to relinquish their commands immediately.

Abstract:

Abstract Ironically, Glubb’s ouster did not signal Hussein’s consolidation of power at the top of the Jordanian pyramid. By mid-March, the paroxysm of nationalist praise for Hussein’s “personal coup”1 had died down, and the old political tests returned with a vengeance. Only this time, the traditional centers of influence-palace, government, and army-faced challenges from newcomers who believed that the future of a Glubbless Jordan was theirs. To the political opposition and to the ambitious nationalists in the Arab Legion, Glubb’s dismissal was as much their victory as Hussein’s, and over the
