Book Subversion and Insurgency

Download or read book Subversion and Insurgency written by William Rosenau and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 2007 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan have generated intense interest in counterinsurgency within the U.S. armed forces, the intelligence community, the State Department, and the Department of Defense. However, subversion-a critical part of the repertoire of many insurgent groups-remains a neglected subject. This paper presents a set of case studies to explore the elements of subversion in-depth. It discusses preliminary ideas for combating subversive activities in the context of the "long war" against violent Islamist extremism and concludes with a discussion of how American support for countersubversion within authoritarian regimes can conflict with other important U.S. foreign policy objectives, such as the promotion of human rights.

Book Resisting Militarism

    Book Details:
  • Author : Rossdale Chris Rossdale
  • Publisher : Edinburgh University Press
  • Release : 2019-05-15
  • ISBN : 1474443060
  • Pages : 368 pages

Download or read book Resisting Militarism written by Rossdale Chris Rossdale and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past 15 years, UK anti-militarist activists have auctioned off a tank outside an arms fair, superglued themselves to Lockheed Martin's central London offices and stopped a battleship with a canoe. They have also challenged militarism in many other everyday ways. This book explores why anti-militarists resist, considers the politics of different tactics and examines the tensions and debates within the movement. As it explores the multifaceted, imaginative and highly subversive world of anti-militarism, the book also makes two overarching arguments. First, that anti-militarists can help us to understand militarism in new and useful ways. And secondly, that the methods and ideas used by anti-militarists can be a potent force for radical political change.

Book Intelligence and Military Operations

Download or read book Intelligence and Military Operations written by Michael Handel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally the military community held the intelligence profession in low esteem, spying was seen as dirty work and information was all to often ignored if it conflicted with a commander's own view. Handel examines the ways in which this situation has improved and argues that co-operation between the intelligence adviser and the military decision maker is vital.

Book NATO and Peace Support Operations  1991 1999

Download or read book NATO and Peace Support Operations 1991 1999 written by Henning Frantzen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-12-17 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new book addresses the key question of how NATO and three of its member states are configuring their policies and military doctrines in order to handle the new strategic environment. This environment is increasingly dominated by 'new wars', more precisely civil wars within states, and peacekeeping as the strategy devised by outside actors for dealing with them. The book seeks to explain how this new strategic environment has been interpreted and how the new conflicts and peacekeeping have been fitted into 'defence' and 'war' - key concepts in the field of security studies.

Book Hijacking and Hostages

    Book Details:
  • Author : J. Paul D. Taillon
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing USA
  • Release : 2002-06-30
  • ISBN : 0313012229
  • Pages : 245 pages

Download or read book Hijacking and Hostages written by J. Paul D. Taillon and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2002-06-30 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Terrorism and its manifestations continue to evolve, becoming deadlier and more menacing. This study considers the evolution of terrorism since 1968 and how airlines and governments have attempted to deal with this form of violence through a series of nonforce strategies. Using historical examples, we see how governments, particularly the United States, attempted to counter politically motivated aerial hijacking with metal detectors, legal means, and, finally, in frustration, counterviolence operations to subdue terrorists. As nations witnessed aerial hijacking and sieges, the requirement for paramilitary and military counterterrorist forces became a necessity. Through use of examples from Israel (Entebbe 1976), West Germany (Mogadishu 1977), and Egypt (Malta 1985), Taillon concludes that cooperation—ranging from shared intelligence to forward base access and observers—can provide significant advantages in dealing with low-intensity operations. He hopes to highlight those key aspects of cooperation at an international level which have, at least in part, been vital to successful counterterrorist operations in the past and, as we witnessed again in the campaign in Afghanistan, are destined to remain so in the future.

Book Orde Wingate and the British Army  1922 1944

Download or read book Orde Wingate and the British Army 1922 1944 written by Simon Anglim and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-10-06 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Major General Orde Wingate (1903–1944) was the most controversial British military commander of the Second World War, and perhaps of the last hundred years. Anglim's biography fills a significant void in the literature, making extensive use of Wingate's papers to place him firmly in the context of the British army of the time.

Book Killing the Enemy

    Book Details:
  • Author : Adam Leong Kok Wey
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2015-09-28
  • ISBN : 0857727710
  • Pages : 272 pages

Download or read book Killing the Enemy written by Adam Leong Kok Wey and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-09-28 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During World War II, the British formed a secret division, the 'SOE' or Special Operations Executive, in order to support resistance organisations in occupied Europe. It also engaged in 'targeted killing' - the assassination of enemy political and military leaders. The unit is famous for equipping its agents with tools for use behind enemy lines, such as folding motorbikes, miniature submarines and suicide pills disguised as coat buttons. But its activities are now also gaining attention as a forerunner to today's 'extra-legal' killings of wartime enemies in foreign territory, for example through the use of unmanned drones. Adam Leong's work evaluates the effectiveness of political assassination in wartime using four examples: Heydrich's assassination in Prague (Operation Anthropoid); the daring kidnap of Major General Kreipe in Crete by Patrick Leigh Fermor; the failed attempt to assassinate Rommel, known as Operation Flipper; and the American assassination of General Yamamoto.

Book Special Force

    Book Details:
  • Author : Alastair MacKenzie
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2011-10-30
  • ISBN : 0857730096
  • Pages : 368 pages

Download or read book Special Force written by Alastair MacKenzie and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2011-10-30 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The exploits of the British Army's elite 22nd Special Air Service Regiment - the regiment of the SAS that forms part of the Regular army - are shrouded in mystery and myths abound about its members. But what is the truth behind the public facade of clinical professionalism? How has such a small regiment attracted so many weighty legends? And what is the purpose of the SAS in the 21st century? "Special Force" provides an original and unusually critical overview of the activities of the SAS from the Malayan Emergency of 1950 to the present day. In the context of a detailed and often controversial analysis of the post-war activities of the Regiment, MacKenzie establishes that the Regiment's almost legendary professional competence is often not backed up by reality. Far from being part of a structured deployment of strategic military assets, MacKenzie argues that the use of the SAS in recent years has been primarily driven by the 'entrepreneurial' actions of a few SAS commanding officers. "Special Force" not only offers a revelatory history of the SAS in the modern period, it is also a disturbing expose of the truth behind the myth. It will be essential reading for anyone with an interest in the British military - past, present and future.
