Book Growing U S  Security Interests in Central Asia

Download or read book Growing U S Security Interests in Central Asia written by Elizabeth Wishnick and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Secretary of State Colin Powell told the House International Relations Committee in February 2002, the United States "will have a continuing interest and presence in Central Asia of a kind that we could not have dreamed of before." After providing background on the development of U.S. security interests in Central Asia, this monograph examines post-9/1 1 trends in U.S. policy and military engagement. In the 1990s the United States initiated military engagement with Central Asia to support the region's integration with western political-military institutions, as well as to protect the sovereignty and independence of these states, assist them to improve their border security against transnational threats, encourage them to adopt market-oriented reform and democratization, and ensure access to energy resources in the region. U.S. military cooperation expanded rapidly with Central Asian states in the immediate aftermath of 9/11 due to the framework of relations that had been built piecemeal in the 1990s. For the first time the United States acquired temporary basing in this region in response to a changing security environment, as Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan became frontline states in Operation ENDURING FREEDOM. Anti-terrorism became the central focus of U.S. policy in the region, although other goals still remain important.

Book Growing U S  Security Interests in Central Asia

Download or read book Growing U S Security Interests in Central Asia written by Elizabeth Wishnick and published by Strategic Studies Institute. This book was released on 2002 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author assesses U.S. security interests and military activities in Central Asia. She notes that strengthening the Central Asian states against terrorism and assisting their transition to stable and prosperous nations are difficult and fraught with danger. In particular, there is the risk that the U.S. military presence in the region and security assistance to repressive regimes might taint America. If not astutely managed, this strategy could have the opposite of the intended results and generate increased instability, spark anti-Americanism, and antagonize Russia and China. To avoid this, Dr. Wishnick advocates a multilateral strategy that integrates the military, political, and economic elements of national power and prods the Central Asian regimes toward reform.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fourth Edition continues the emphasis on real-life problems and transactions that has distinguished these teaching materials for decades. As in previous editions, the Problems are tailored to focus the student's attention on the relevant statutory language and its application to common patterns of secured financing. They emphasize counseling, planning, drafting, and litigation skills. In addition to more traditional Problems, which ask the student to predict the outcome, many of the Problems ask the student to give advice to clients, to structure transactions, and to draft certain provisions of documents. As in the Third Edition, many of the Problems are based upon Prototype transactions that feature actual transaction documents. The first'financing an automobile dealer's inventory and financing a consumer buyer's purchase of an automobile from the dealer'affords the basis for a discussion of basic Article 9 concepts in a concrete setting. The second Prototype features an accounts and inventory ?borrowing-base? secured credit facility and includes a revolving credit agreement and security agreement. This Prototype forms the basis for detailed coverage of various types of financing secured by receivables and other intangible property.

Book Strategic Consequences of the Iraq War

Download or read book Strategic Consequences of the Iraq War written by Elizabeth Wishnick and published by Strategic Studies Institute U. S. Army War College. This book was released on 2004 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S.-led war in Iraq complicates security cooperation between the United States and Central Asia at a time when other regional powers2especially Russia, China, and India2are competing for influence in the region more overtly. Concerned about the implications of the U.S. interest in [beta]regime change[gamma] for their own rule, Central Asian leaders now have an added incentive to overstate terrorist threats, persecute political opposition, and crack down on peaceful religious activity. The author argues that the United States should do more to address the underlying human security problems in Central Asia, which increase its vulnerability to terrorist movements.
