Quasi-alliance refers to the ideation, mechanism and behavior of
policy-makers to carry out security cooperation through informal
political and security arrangements. As a "gray zone" between alliance
and neutrality, quasi-alliance is a hidden national security statecraft.
Policy-makers tend to seek a third way to strengthen security
cooperation and meanwhile avert the risk of conflict. Based on
declassified archives and secondary sources, this book probes the theory
and practice of quasi-alliances in the Middle East. Five cases are
chosen to test the hypotheses of quasi-alliance formation, management,
efficacy and termination, including Anglo-French-Israeli quasi-alliance
during the Suez Canal War of 1956; US-Saudi quasi-alliance during the
Johnson administration; Soviet-Egypt quasi-alliance during the Sadat
administration; and Iran-Syria quasi-alliance since 1979. The research
finds that alliance is a hard balancing based on legally binding
treaties, while quasi-alliance is a soft balance based on politically
binding agreement. The task-oriented quasi-alliance features diversity
of functions, flexibility of cooperative means, intangibility of
targeting, and limitation of sovereignty transfer.
