Ethnicity,Nationalism and the European Cold War (Paperback)

This book questions the prevalent assumption that ethnicity and nationalist politics had nothing to do with the Cold War and that,far from being 'frozen' until the fall of communism,they remained central to the conflict in Europe. Leading scholars bring their understanding of particular regions to bear on the wider issue of why ethnic explanations were written out of the discourse and whether this was a failure on the part of Western observers. This in turn has led to an overly simple understanding o

Spies in the Vatican: The Soviet Union's Cold War Against

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Koehler, John O. / Koehler, John, PUBLISHER: Pegasus Books, From the persecution of local priests to an assassination order against Pope John Paul II, signed by Gorbachev himself, lifetime journalist and advisor to President Reagan John Koehler has put together a startling history of the Soviet Union's espionage and violence against the Catholic Church. With never before seen documents and transcripts, including the order against the Pope signed by Gorbachev and nine other Politbureau members, Koehler shows how large a threat the Soviets perceived the Catholic Church to be to stability in Eastern Europe. However paranoid, there was some truth to their suspicions, as the Pope's visit to heavily Catholic Poland in the 's triggered the beginning of the Solidarity movement in the Eastern Bloc countries.

US Military Innovation Since the Cold War: Creation Without

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Sapolsky, Harvey M. / Friedman, Benjamin / Green, Brendan Rittenhouse, PUBLISHER: Routledge, This book explains how the US military reacted to the 'Revolution in Military Affairs' (RMA), and failed to innovate its organization or doctrine to match the technological breakthroughs it brought about. Many called for the transformation of the US military in the years after the end of the Cold War, seeking the changes in organization and doctrine that would complete the RMA innovation and a commitment to counter-insurgency, peace keeping and nation building missions. This volume describes the origins, uses, and limits of the RMA technologies, examines how each of the five US armed services (categorising the Special Operations as a separate service) made their adjustments both to the technologies and the use of force, and how the role of the civilian officials and the defense industry altered in this process of change and avoidance of change. The book examines the internal politics of the services as well as civil/military relations to identify the external pressures on the services for significant change in their doctrine and weapons. Many have noted the failure of the services to innovate in what can be called the 'Second Inter-war Period' (the years after the Cold War). This book offers explanations for this failure and arguments about the possible range and desirability of military innovation in the post-Cold war era. This book will be of great interest to students of strategic studies, US defence politics, military studies, and US politics. Harvey M. Sapolsky is Professor of Public Policy and Organization in the Department of Political Science at MIT and former Director of the Security Studies Program. Benjamin H. Friedman is a Research Fellow in Defense and Homeland Security Studies at the Cato Institute and a Ph.D. Candidate in Political Science at MIT. Brendan Green is a Ph.D. Candidate in Political Science at MIT and an affiliate of the Security Studies Program.

U.S. Military Intervention in the Post-Cold War Era: How to

During the post--World War II era,American foreign policy prominently featured direct U.S. military intervention in the Third World.

The European Union and the Accomodation of Basque Differnce

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bourne, Angela K., PUBLISHER: Manchester University Press, Devolution has been an important tool in Spanish politics for managing nationalist disputes--and for the Basque Country where protracted and sometimes violent nationalist conflicts persist.
