520    The purpose of this book is to understand and explain the 
       Iraqi invasion of Kuwait: to understand the motivation of 
       the Iraqi polity, and the conditions, in particular the 
       Arabic discourse, which accelerated and facilitated the 
       decision. Western accounts of the invasion have tended to 
       ignore the Arabic discourse, despite the facts that this 
       was the actors' world view. Much of the literature has 
       tended to focus on Saddam Hussein's personality and 
       leadership, demonizing the man, and few have viewed the 
       invasion more calmly through the social and political 
       context of history and political science. Few have 
       examined the Sate, outside pressures, the impact of 
       history, the exposure to colonialism which would have 
       provided a balanced view, as this book attempts to do. 
       During the Gulf crisis the literature and media coverage 
       linked the behaviour of Arab political leaders directly to
       Islamic theology, as if this alone was enough to explain 
       the invasion. This book discusses three perspectives. 
       Firstly, the realist perspective of "Realpolitik": how 
       Saddam Hussein reasoned and calculated the various 
       alternatives, including the US's and Israel's intentions; 
       the miscalculated response of the other Arab States, the 
       Pan Arab framework; and the unprecedented support from 
       grass roots and main-stream Arabs as the Iraq leadership 
       introduced itself as the champion of the common Arab 
       Nation. Secondly, the institutionalist perspective: the 
       Iraqi domestic environment and its crisis of legitimacy, 
       which disposed the regime to violent foreign behaviour; 
       the social structure of Iraqi society, families, clans and
       regional alliances; and the modern political structure of 
       the society, and of Ba'athism. Thirdly, the sociological 
       perspective: the relating of the identity of Arabism 
       (mainly the religion and language, which is associated 
       closely with the Pan Arabist ideals) to foreign policy 
       behaviour, as an additional explanation of the invasion. -
