Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This strategic study was written by Lyndon LaRouche in 1982 to warn Americans about the way in which the British Empire had set about to subtly change both American culture and Americans' perceptions of other cultures in such a way as to produce unnecessary continuous conflict. It is an old game. The intended result would be the downfall of all of the players; although, among the fallen, the British gamemasters would expect to remain on top. "No analyst nor government could possibly have a competent strategic assessment today unless it understood the significance of historian Arnold Toynbee's rather long tenure at the head of the British foreign-intelligence service. . . . . "We, fools that we are, are induced to believe usually that we developed our foreign policies through thorough assessment of a massive ingathering of intelligence. . . ." Yet, without an historical view from above, we have been constantly suckered into one or another disaster. "We must see that process as if it were a drama unfolding to our observation on a stage, and we for a moment here, reading this report, are directing our consciousness to see our own consciousness elaborated on that stage . . . ." "When the proper acquaintance with Shakespeare was ripped out of our schools' curricula, what our nation lost was persons adequately developed to become future citizens of this republic. Without Shakespeare, Milton and Shelley in our secondary schools, those schools will produce chiefly eternally adolescent functional illiterates or worse . . . . these works represent a distillation of those aspects of our English-speaking culture by means of which true citizens are produced . . . ." Finally, Mr. LaRouche presents an outline for a foreign policy of which Benjamin Franklin would have been proud--a foreign policy based upon mutual respect and cooperative physical development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essential resource on military and political strategy and the making of the modern world The New Makers of Modern Strategy is the next generation of the definitive work on strategy and the key figures who have shaped the theory and practice of war and statecraft throughout the centuries. Featuring entirely new entries by a who’s who of world-class scholars, this new edition provides global, comparative perspectives on strategic thought from antiquity to today, surveying both classical and current themes of strategy while devoting greater attention to the Cold War and post-9/11 eras. The contributors evaluate the timeless requirements of effective strategy while tracing the revolutionary changes that challenge the makers of strategy in the contemporary world. Amid intensifying global disorder, the study of strategy and its history has never been more relevant.

Download or read book British Grand Strategy in the Age of American Hegemony written by William D. James and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2024-01-18 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is the United Kingdom capable of grand strategy? Common wisdom suggests otherwise. Some think it implausible amid the maelstrom of domestic politics, while others believe the UK lacks the necessary autonomy, as a cog in the US-led order. British Grand Strategy in the Age of American Hegemony challenges these claims. William D. James contends that grand strategy is an unavoidable part of governing. Grand strategy is the highest level of national security decision-making, encompassing judgements over a state's overarching objectives and interests, as well as its security environment and resource base. Getting these decisions 'right' is vital in moments of geopolitical flux. Employing several historical case studies between 1940-2003 and marshalling a host of primary sources, James argues that British politicians and officials have thought in grand strategic terms under American hegemony - even if they do not realise or admit to this. He also demonstrates that the role of allies in shaping British grand strategy has been overstated. Finally, James highlights the conditions under which domestic political actors can influence grand strategic decision-making. Written for practitioners as well as scholars, the book concludes with several policy recommendations at this inflection point in British history.
Download or read book Operation Ju rez written by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr. and published by Executive Intelligence Review. This book was released on 2019-05-12 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written in August 1982, Operation Juárez emerged from Lyndon LaRouche’s intense work to forge a policy alliance among the leaders of the United States, Mexico, and India, to replace the bankrupt international financial system with a just New World Economic Order, based on principles derived from Alexander Hamilton’s American System of Economics. As the author explains in his foreword: “We have named this report ‘Operation Juárez,’ in memory of the proper alliance between the American Whigs of the United States and the Mexican liberals from whose ranks Juárez emerged as a leading figure” – ie, the Lincoln-Juárez alliance. Immediately prior to writing Operation Juárez, LaRouche, who had been in dialogue with President Reagan’s closest advisers even prior to his inauguration in early 1981, had just travelled to New Delhi where he met with Prime Minister Gandhi on April 23, 1982, and he then visited Mexico where he met with President López Portillo on May 27, 1982. As Mexico and the entire developing sector were being subjected to withering economic warfare by a desperately bankrupt City of London and Wall Street, LaRouche presented to both heads of state a battle plan to win the war and create a New World Economic Order. After meeting with President López Portillo in May, LaRouche was invited back to Mexico in early July 1982, where he met with top advisers to the Mexican President, who asked him to put his policy proposals in writing for further study and consideration. LaRouche did that within a matter of weeks, completing Operation Juárez on August 10, 1982. Shortly thereafter, President López Portillo implemented many of LaRouche’s recommendations; but with Mexico's prospective allies undermined via British Imperial operations, Mexico was not strong enough on its own to withstand the British Imperial response. Nonetheless, developing nations studied closely Mr. LaRouche’s strategy and you will recognize, as you read this book, the congruence between ongoing actions on the world stage today and the principles outlined in this book. The congruence is not an accident!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 1983 proposal by Lyndon LaRouche is not just a technical array of (now mostly completed or rapidly developing toward completion) transformative projects aimed at bringing Indian-Pacific nations into the modern world, but one of the most detailed explications of LaRouche’s economic ideas. The fact that many Asian nations have eagerly adopted his ideas to leapfrog from poverty to the frontiers of science and space development, while the “leaders” of most of North America and Western Europe have fearfully clung to old discredited imperial geopolitical doctrines, underlines the importance and also the controversial nature of this work.

Download or read book The Crimean War written by Andrew Lambert and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-16 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In contrast to every other book about the conflict Andrew Lambert's ground-breaking study The Crimean War: British Grand Strategy against Russia, 1853-1856 is neither an operational history of the armies in the Crimea, nor a study of the diplomacy of the conflict. The core concern is with grand strategy, the development and implementation of national policy and strategy. The key concepts are strategic, derived from the works of Carl von Clausewitz and Sir Julian Corbett, and the main focus is on naval, not military operations. This original approach rejected the 'Continentalist' orthodoxy that dominated contemporary writing about the history of war, reflecting an era when British security policy was dominated by Inner German Frontier, the British Army of the Rhine and Air Force Germany. Originally published in 1990 the book appeared just as the Cold War ended; the strategic landscape for Britain began shifting away from the continent, and new commitments were emerging that heralded a return to maritime strategy, as adumbrated in the defence policy papers of the 1990s. With a new introduction that contextualises the 1990 text and situates it in the developing historiography of the Crimean War the new edition makes this essential book available to a new generation of scholars.
