Abstract

This thesis argues that external foreign powers, namely the United States and Syria, influenced foreign policy elites in Jordan and Lebanon to either pursue or reject normalization agreements with Israel throughout history. This thesis also examines how elite foreign policy-makers shape Lebanese and Jordanian public opinion through their policies with Israel.
