Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The Vatican and the Emergence of the Modern Middle East examines the originality of Pope Benedict XVs diplomacy (19141922) during the First World War and the immediate post-war period in the modern Middle East emerging after the fall of the Ottoman Empire. A thorough exploration of the pontiffs statecraft regarding Syria, Lebanon, and Palestine serves as the case study and emphasizes Pope Benedicts participation in preparing the Catholic Church for an active role in the new world order.Benedict XV was a far-sighted geopolitical master whose diplomaticvision went beyond local circumstances so as to equip the Church forfuture protection of Catholic interests and communities worldwide. Pope Benedict anticipated the geopolitical revolution that would take place in the wake of the Great War and discerned the first tremors that would initiate the decolonization movement and the self-determination of national minorities. After the war, the pontiff, who had acquired a new moral authority, initiated a policy that shifted the Holy See away from its past Eurocentric vision of the world. This implemented a supple diplomacy that would adjust to any political environment as long as the independence of the Holy See and the protection of Catholic interests would be guaranteed. This far-seeing diplomacy had repercussions at the regional and international level that lasted long after his death. The recent celebration of the 100th anniversary of the outbreak ofWorld War One, which coincides with the 100th anniversary of the beginning of Benedicts reign makes this book timely and relevant given the current, and not to abate soon, events in the Middle East. It draws attention to an underappreciated pontificate and remedies the absence of detailed and comprehensive regional foreign policy studies relative to Benedict XVs pontificate. Finally, the volume provides a larger historical context to understanding the current welfare and survival of Christian communities in an overwhelmingly Muslim Middle East. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
