Download or read book Horn of Africa written by Philip Caputo and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2012-06-13 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Vietnam veteran and foreign correspondent Charlie Gage is recruited by the shadowy Thomas Colfax to assist with something called Operation Atropos, he has no idea he is about to be enlisted for guerilla warfare in northeast Africa. Once he realizes he’s a mercenary, however, he is not at all concerned. Ever since his young secretary was killed by a grenade at their bureau office in Beirut a couple of years before, he has lost all volition. Which is why he so readily capitulates not only to Colfax, but also, and more dangerously so, to every command of Jeremy Nordstrand, the mystical megalomaniac determined to achieve greatness on their seemingly suicidal mission. Set in the forsaken yet exotic deserts of Ethiopia, Horn of Africa is a vividly detailed and masterfully plotted novel chronicling a broken man’s struggle for salvation and inner freedom in the midst of a broken nation’s fight for stability and peace.

Download or read book Arms for the Horn written by Jeffrey Lefebvre and published by University of Pittsburgh Pre. This book was released on 2010-11-23 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using a great power-small power theoretical approach and advancing a supplier-recipient barganing model, Jeffery Lefebvre attempts to explain what the United States has paid for its relations with two weak and vulnerable arms recipients in the Horn of Africa.Through massive documentation and extensive interviewing, Lefebvre sorts through the confusions and shifts of the United StatesÆ post-World War II relations with Ethiopia and Somalia, two primary antagonists in the Horn of Africa. He consulted State Department, Pentagon, and AID officials, congressional staffers, current and former ambassadors, and Ethiopian and Somali government advisers.The story of U.S. arms transfers to northeast Africa is tangled and complex. In 1953, 1960, and 1964-66, the United States entered into various arms provision deals with Ethiopia, spurred by the Soviet-sponsored buildup in the region. Policy changed in the 1970s: Nixon refused a large aid request in 1973, and in 1977 Carter ended EthiopiaÆs military aid on human rights grounds and denied aid to Somalia during the 1977-78 Ogaden War. Reversing this policy, the Reagan administration extended military aid to Somalia despite its aggressive moves against Ethiopia. Changes in U.S. relations and the revolution in Somalia have altered the picture once more.Jeffery Lefebvre concludes that U.S. diplomacy in northeast Africa has been overly influenced by a cold war mentality. In their obsession with countering Soviet pressure in the Third World, Washington decision makers exposed U.S. interests to unnecessary risks and given far too much for value received during four decades of vacillating and misguided foreign policy.Arms for the Horn should interest all concerned with arms transfer issues and security studies, as well as specialist in Africa and the Middle East.

Book excerpt: Internationally well-known defence and strategic affairs analyst and awardee of several awards in the field of media, Lt Col. JS Sodhi (Retd) analyzes the rise of China economically and militarily since the Chinese Civil War ended in 1949 and how China poses the greatest danger to world peace and world order, as not only does it challenge the superpower status of the USA, but it has also emerged as a superpower itself with unbridled economic and military prowess. With six wars on the horizon that China will wage in the next 39 years, it will be a challenge to contain China unless bold steps are taken immediately before it is too late.
Download or read book A Military Bibliography of the Horn of Africa written by Elias Wondimu and published by . This book was released on 2011-04-15 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Military Bibliography of the Horn of Africa is not only one of the most authoritative and comprehensive study of the region's military history but is also the first bibliography on the military history of the region. Since the end of World War II, the Horn of Africa has been one of the most conflicted regions in the world. It is a place where democratic governance is scarce and countless disputes over land, water, and ethnic and religious divisions are rampant. These situations underscore the need for a bibliography that focuses on those issues that contribute to conflict and the use of military force, so that better studies can be conducted to find a common solution. With 6,500 entries, this book features the five countries that make the Horn and is subdivided into sections and subsections that classify the bibliography for easy access.

Download or read book Peace and War written by Mary LeCron Foster and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-03-02 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is war necessary? In Peace and War prominent anthropologists and other social scientists explore the cultural and social factors leading to war. They analyze the covert causes of war from a cross-cultural perspective: ideologies that dispose people to war; underlying patterns of social relationships that help institutionalize war; and the cultural systems of military establishments. Overt causes of war—environmental factors like the control of scarce resources, advantageous territories, and technologies, or promoting the welfare of people “like” oneself—are also considered. The authors examine anthropologists’ role in policy formation—how their theories on the nature of culture and society help those who deal with global problems on a day-to-day basis. They argue that both covert and overt mechanisms are pushing the world closer to a devastating war and offer strategies to weaken the effects of these mechanisms. This anthropological and historical analysis of the causes of war is a valuable resource for those studying war and those trying to understand the place of social science in framing pacific options.
