Book Foreign Policy Begins at Home

Download or read book Foreign Policy Begins at Home written by Richard N Haass and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A concise, comprehensive guide to America's critical policy choices at home and overseas . . . without a partisan agenda, but with a passion for solutions designed to restore our country's strength and enable us to lead." -- Madeleine K. Albright A rising China, climate change, terrorism, a nuclear Iran, a turbulent Middle East, and a reckless North Korea all present serious challenges to America's national security. But it depends even more on the United States addressing its burgeoning deficit and debt, crumbling infrastructure, second class schools, and outdated immigration system. While there is currently no great rival power threatening America directly, how long this strategic respite lasts, according to Council on Foreign Relations President Richard N. Haass, will depend largely on whether the United States puts its own house in order. Haass lays out a compelling vision for restoring America's power, influence, and ability to lead the world and advocates for a new foreign policy of Restoration that would require the US to limit its involvement in both wars of choice, and humanitarian interventions. Offering essential insight into our world of continual unrest, this new edition addresses the major foreign and domestic debates since hardcover publication, including US intervention in Syria, the balance between individual privacy and collective security, and the continuing impact of the sequester.

Book The Home and Foreign Review  1864  Vol  4  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Home and Foreign Review 1864 Vol 4 Classic Reprint written by and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-12 with total page 792 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Home and Foreign Review, 1864, Vol. 4 The book is exceedingly difficult to review, because hardly any thing can be said of Mr. Gladstone's proposals which he has not previously said of them himself. He has laid bare to us the processes of reasoning and investigation, - the first idea ma turing gradually into the full-blown conviction. He has stated, analysed, refuted all the arguments against him. He has turned his pr0posals round on every side, and looked at them in every light, until the reader or listener - carried away by the mixture of so much subtlety and so much candour - surrenders his mind to the influence of a man who seems to have foreseen, anticipated, and surmounted more objections to his own plans than the most determined and ingenious antagonist would ever have thought it possible to suggest. In two of these speeches the financial statement of 1853, and the speech On the extension of the In come Tax to Charities - Mr. Gladstone undoubtedly put forth the whole powers of his mind, and exhausted the whole resources of his eloquence: in the first, to force an Income Tax on an unwilling House of Commons; in the second, to extort from an assembly which he well knew had already decided against him the tribute of an involuntary admiration, and of a con viction which some of the most prejudiced of his hearers found it impossible to withhold. Every speech in this volume, how ever, deserves study from those who wish to learn the art of addressing with success an assembly like the House of Com mons. We may read and admire the speeches of the great orators of the earlier part of the century; but the style and man ner suited to the present day can no more be extracted from them than from the orations of Cicero. Mr. Gladstone's treat ment of every subject is essentially modern: it catches and pre serves the tone Of the days in which we live, and shows us at least one style which has been crowned with the most complete success. The advantage, however, after all, of possessing these monuments of splendid eloquence is not so great 'as it seems.

Download or read book Foreign Words written by Vassilis Alexakis and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crossing countries and continents, this narrative follows a son lost for words over the death of his father. Unable to write the phrase "My father is dead" in either his native Greek or his adopted French, he heads for Africa to undertake the learning of Sango. Traveling across both borders and time, he examines his past, his family history, and the colonial and political ties of his homelands. While at first he does not know why learning a new and uncommon language has become vital to him, he comes to discover that the new language enables him to easily write of his father's passing. But as he truly experiences Sango--meets its speakers, travels where it emerged and has struggled to survive--his intimacy with it grows, and he is once again unable to utter the telling phrase. Meditating on language, loss, and the power of words to express or constrain human emotion, this tale of speaking, living, and letting go is filled with delicate suspense, humor, and honesty.

Book Coming Home to a Foreign Country

Download or read book Coming Home to a Foreign Country written by Soon Keong Ong and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2021-08-15 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ong Soon Keong explores the unique position of the treaty port Xiamen (Amoy) within the China-Southeast Asia migrant circuit and examines its role in the creation of Chinese diasporas. Coming Home to a Foreign Country addresses how migration affected those who moved out of China and later returned to participate in the city's economic revitalization, educational advancement, and urban reconstruction. Ong shows how the mobility of overseas Chinese allowed them to shape their personal and community identities for pragmatic and political gains. This resulted in migrants who returned with new money, knowledge, and visions acquired abroad, which changed the landscape of their homeland and the lives of those who stayed. Placing late Qing and Republican China in a transnational context, Coming Home to a Foreign Country explores the multilayered social and cultural interactions between China and Southeast Asia. Ong investigates the role of Xiamen in the creation of a China-Southeast Asia migrant circuit; the activities of aspiring and returned migrants in Xiamen; the accumulation and manipulation of multiple identities by Southeast Asian Chinese as political conditions changed; and the motivations behind the return of Southeast Asian Chinese and their continual involvement in mainland Chinese affairs. For Chinese migrants, Ong argues, the idea of "home" was something consciously constructed. Ong complicates familiar narratives of Chinese history to show how the emigration and return of overseas Chinese helped transform Xiamen from a marginal trading outpost at the edge of the Chinese empire to a modern, prosperous city and one of the most important migration hubs by the 1930s.
