CHINA--ARMED FORCES Civil-Military Change in China : Elites, Institutes, and Ideas after the 16th Party Congress. - Carlisle Barracks, PA : US Army War College, 2004. v, 377 p. : ill.; 23 cm. ID number: 80019722 Type: M Library Location: 355.2 /00279 ISBN: 1584871652 'In November 2002, the Chinese Communist Party held its 16th Congress and formally initiated a sweeping turnover of senior leaders in both the Party and the People's Liberation Army (PLA). The meeting heralded not merely a new set of personalities in positions of political and military power, but also the emergence of a new generation of leaders. Who are these individuals, and what does their rise mean for the future of China and its military ? China matters to the United States because of its size, its spectacular patterns of growth, its profound problems linked to rapid growth, and its military intentions. Facts and trends are examined to explain the divisions and cohesions in the Chinese leadership and their potential significance to the United States and the rest of the world. Also examined is how Chinese policies have evolved over the years, and how important the United States has been in influencing China's strategy. What, for instance, will the emerging leadership with its factious differences do about Taiwan and North Korea ?'

CHINA--MILITARY POLICY Interpreting China's Military Power : Doctrine Makes Readiness / by Ka Po Ng. - London : Frank Cass, 2005. ix, 251 p.; 24 cm. ID number: 80019689 Type: M Library Location: 355 /00449 ISBN: 0714655481 Author(s): 1. Ng, Ka Po Bibliography: p. 223-244. Includes index. 'Although inter-state tensions have generally been easing after the Cold War, military power remains a dominant factor in Asian regional politics. As China, operating the world's largest army, grows stronger, there are ongoing debates over the implications for Asian regional security. This book argues that it is imperative to look beyond the empirical observations and conventional materialist reading of Chinese military development to understand its dynamics and directions in doctrinal terms and put it in a readiness context for evaluation. Military doctrine has long been under-researched and is often treated as a subject separate from force development. But, as this study contends, this factor is necessary for interpreting the making and purposes of China's military power because it forms the intellectual foundation of military structural and hardware development. Without being loaded with political rhetoric, it also communicates to us for what military power is intended. The role of doctrine is reinforced in the context of military readiness, which defines what the army is getting ready for, and how. Force development is evaluated in structural and operational terms. The importance of this analytical framework based on military doctrine and readiness is demonstrated in a survey of the evolution of Chinese military doctrine and force development. As the Chinese People's Liberation Army has

continued to adjust its military structure and operation to follow the doctrinal lead, its switches between local war and total war doctrines have seen corresponding changing emphasis between operational and structural readiness. The current high-technology local war doctrine dictates that China has to focus more on operational readiness. In the information age, this means that, though geographically localised, military conflicts in fact see an expanding battlespace and, buttressed by information technology, operation has to be efficient as well as precise.'

CUBA--HISTORY Cuba : A New History / by Richard Gott. - 1st ed. - New Haven, CT : Yale University Press, 2004. ix, 384 p. : ill.; 25 cm. ID number: 80019717 Type: M Library Location: 972 /00001 ISBN: 0300104111 Author(s): 1. Gott, Richard Bibliography: p. 360-362. Includes index. 'This new look at the history of Cuba illuminates the island's entire revolutionary past as well as the most recent decades of the Castro regime. Events in Fidel Castro's island nation often command international attention and just as often inspire controversy. Impassioned debate over situations as diverse as the Cuban Missile Crisis and the Elian Gonzalez affair is characteristic not only in modern times but throughout the centuries of Cuban history. In this concise and up-to-date book the author casts a fresh eye on the history of the Caribbean island from its pre-Columbian origins to the present day. He provides a European perspective on a country that is perhaps too frequently seen solely from the American point of view. The author emphasizes such little-known aspects of Cuba's history as its tradition of racism and violence, its black rebellions, the survival of its Indian peoples, and the lasting influence of Spain. The book also offers an original look at aspects of the Revolution, including Castro's relationship with the Soviet Union, military exploits in Africa, and his attempts to promote revolution in Latin America and among American blacks. In a concluding section, the author tells the extraordinary story of the Revolution's survival in the post-Soviet years, and prospects for the future.'

DETERRENCE (STRATEGY) Pivotal Deterrence : Third-Party Statecraft and the Pursuit of Peace / by Timothy W. Crawford. - Ithaca, NY : Cornell University Press, 2003. x, 275 p. : ill.; 25 cm. ID number: 80019705 Type: M Library Location: 327 /01222 ISBN: 0801440971 Author(s): 1. Crawford, Timothy W. Includes index. 'As the preponderant world power, the United States is a potential arbiter of war and peace between such feuding rivals as India and Pakistan, Turkey and Greece, China and Taiwan. How can it deter them from going to war and impel them to accept compromise without firmly choosing sides ? This age-old strategic dilemma, which the author calls 'pivotal deterrence', has become a central challenge of international security in today's unipolar world. The author explains the political dynamics of pivotal deterrence and the conditions under which it is likely to succeed, while examining some of its most impressive feats and failures. German Chancellor Otto von Bismarck's agile approach to the 1870s Eastern Crisis, which prevented war between Russia and Austria-Hungary, is contrasted with Britain's ambiguous and ill-fated maneuvers to deter Germany and France in July 1914. Shifting to the 1960s Cold War, the author explores the successes and setbacks in US efforts to prevent NATO allies Greece and Turkey from fighting over Cyprus and to defuse the Kashmir conflict between India and Pakistan. Capping the analysis is a rich look at similar US efforts in the 1990s in South Asia, the Aegean, the Balkans, and East Asia. The author concludes with an assessment of the prospects for American pivotal deterrence in the years ahead and its implications for international relations theory.'

practices that evolved over many decades in Western Europe. This book emphasizes the way that policy elites in Central and Eastern Europe often 'ordered from the menu' of established Western practices. When did this emulation of Western practices result in more effective and efficient institutions and when did it result in a fiasco ? The author examines empirical cases in agriculture, regional policy, consumer protection, health care, civilian-control of the military, and military professionalism from Hungary, the Czech Republic, Poland, Bulgaria, and the Ukraine. The book addresses debates in institutionalist theory, including conditionality, Europeanization, and external influences on democratic and market transitions.'

EU--CYPRUS EU Accession Dynamics and Conflict Resolution : Catalysing Peace or Consolidating Partition in Cyprus ? / by Nathalie Tocci. - Aldershot, UK : Ashgate, 2004. x, 205 p. : ill.; 24 cm. ID number: 80019637 Type: M Library Location: 441 /00131 ISBN: 0754643107 Author(s): 1. Tocci, Nathalie Bibliography: p. 190-201. Includes index. 'Since 1993, the European Commission, EU member states and the Republic of Cyprus have raised the expectation that the prospect of Cyprus' EU membership would act as a catalyst for a settlement of the island's conflict. Yet the divisions between the positions of the principal parties widened and the 1990s witnessed an escalation of tensions in the Eastern Mediterranean. Thereafter, despite the re-launch of the peace process in 2002-2004, the divided island joined the EU on 1 May 2004. This study analyses the case of Cyprus and the EU. It explores the interrelationship between the evolution of the conflict and the development of EU-Cyprus relations within the accession process; it explains the factors driving the conduct of EU policies towards the conflict; and it demonstrates that the EU framework could have added important incentives for a resolution of the conflict by providing an alternative context within which to address the basic needs of the principal parties.'

EU--ESDP La coherence par la defense : une autre lecture de la PESD / by Philippe de Schoutheete. - Paris : Institut d'Etudes de Securite de l'Union Europeenne, 2004. 81 p.; 24 cm. (Cahiers de Chaillot ; 71) ID number: 80019715 Type: M Library Location: 448 /00043 ISBN: 9291980633 Author(s): 1. Schoutheete, Philippe de 'On peut lire le developpement, au cours de plusieurs decennies, de la dimension de politique exterieure de la construction europeenne, y compris dans le domaine de la securite et de la defense, comme une suite de compromis entre deux logiques contradictoires : celle de la souverainete nationale et celle de la coherence. La logique de souverainete incite les Etats a conserver le controle de leurs moyens d'action. La logique de coherence impose aux acteurs qui veulent exercer de l'influence sur la scene internationale, comme c'est le cas de l'Union europeenne, de coordonner les divers instruments dont ils peuvent disposer. L'impulsion donnee par la France et la Grande-Bretagne a Saint-Malo en decembre 1998 a abouti, en peu d'annees, a la mise en place d'un systeme juridique et institutionnel pour les questions de securite et de defense, a l'amorce d'une strategie commune, et a la prise de decisions operationnelles, aboutissant en 2003 a des operations effectivement conduites, pour la premiere fois, dans un cadre europeen. L'analyse de ces resultats a la lumiere des deux logiques contradictoires met en evidence l'emergence, entre le purisme communautaire et le purisme intergouvernemental, d'une troisieme voie qui, malgre ses ambiguites, n'est plus vraiment contestee. Le personnage ambivalent du ministre des affaires etrangeres dans le projet de Constitution en est une illustration.'

De part et d'autre de ces deux entites, par essence multiples et diversifiees, s'entremelent des regards croises et un dialogue, par nature complexe. Depuis le 11 septembre, on assiste a une crispation des debats, une radicalisation des opinions, qui laisse entrevoir, selon certains, l'aube d'un 'choc des civilisations'. Tant au niveau regional qu'international, l'Europe elargie ne peut faire l'impasse sur ces questions. L'UE est en effet constamment interpellee, qu'il s'agisse de l'adhesion de la Turquie, de sa politique etrangere face a l'Irak et au conflit israelo-palestinien, ou encore face aux minorites musulmanes etablies sur son territoire, auxquelles on reproche d'importer les conflits qui secouent cette partie du monde.

ID number: 80019746 Type: M Library Location: 382 /00309 ISBN: 1584871741 Author(s): 1. Jones, Scott Allan 'As Asia develops into a clearly demarcated economic 'region', it is confronted by similar export control challenges as those faced in Europe with the advent of the Common Market. As such, a regional system of export control standards and practices emerged as a means to ensure not only economic parity, but regional and international security as well. While not necessarily as advanced in terms of regional identity as the European free trade area, the states of Asia could benefit profitably from a regional approach to export control development and coordination. In addition, the states of Asia could also gain from increased export control cooperation with the United States. As a global leader in nonproliferation, the United States can provide critical assistance to export control development efforts through training and the allocation of other resources. Likewise, the United States should focus its export control outreach efforts to the less developed export control systems in Asia, especially the transshipment countries.'

ID number: 80019631 Type: M Library Location: 327 /01217 ISBN: 0815782446 Author(s): 1. Szabo, Stephen F. Includes index. 'The first comprehensive examination of the German-American relationship written since the invasion of Iraq, this book is indispensable for those seeking to chart the future course of the transatlantic alliance. In early 2003, it became apparent that many nations, including close allies of the United States, would not participate in the US-led coalition against Iraq. Despite the high-profile tension between the United States and France, some of the most bitter opposition came from Germany, marking the end not only of the German-American 'special relationship', but also of the broader transatlantic relationship's preeminence in Western strategic thought. Drawing on extensive research and personal interviews with decisionmakers and informed observers in both the United States and Germany, the author frames the clash between Gerhard Schroder and George W. Bush over US policy in Iraq in the context of the larger changes shaping the relationship between the two countries. He considers such longer-term factors as the decreasing strategic importance of the US-German relationship for each nation in the post-cold war era, the emergence of a new German identity within Germany itself and a US foreign policy led by what is arguably the most ideological administration of the post-World War II era.'

to critical and popular acclaim, his memoir has become a cult favorite in intelligence circles. He chronicles his experiences from his time as a junior officer fleeing a tedious training assignment in Louisiana to his rigorous OSS training rituals in the United States, England, and Scotland for its Special Operations unit. Quick to pick up on the skills necessary for behind-the-lines intelligence work, Hall became an expert instructor, but was only reluctantly given operational duties because of his reputation as an iconoclast. In his droll storytelling style, Hall describes his first parachute jump in support of the French resistance as a comedy of errors that terminated prematurely. His last assignment in the war zone came when then Capt. William Colby, the future head of the CIA, handpicked him to lead the second section of a Norwegian special operations group into Norway via Sweden.'

'L'epoque qui s'ouvre avec le 11 septembre pourrait combiner la brutalite et le primat de la puissance, qui caracterisaient la guerre froide, avec la fluidite, les incertitudes et les ambiguites de l'apres-guerre froide. Des trois combinaisons historiques, celle de la division et de la dissuasion (guerre froide), celle de la guerre civile et de l'intervention internationale (les annees 1990), celle de la terreur et de l'empire (l'apres-11 septembre 2001), la derniere est sans doute la plus instable et, peut-etre, la plus dangereuse. Le precedent tome retracait le basculement du monde bipolaire dans l'ere de l'apres-guerre froide. Celui-ci prolonge cette reflexion et donne la mesure des mutations actuelles en proposant un double eclairage. Le premier revient sur la scene tragique des evenements et les logiques de ses acteurs (societes, Etats, systemes inter- ou supra-nationaux). Le second introduit le lecteur dans les debats intellectuels contemporains (de Fukuyama a Kagan) et dans un dialogue avec les grands philosophes (de Thucydide a Nietzsche en passant par Hobbes et Kant). Ce double eclairage permet de comprendre le glissement de la 'dialectique du bourgeois et du barbare' vers une veritable 'geopolitique des passions'.'

'For decades, a new type of terrorism has been quietly gathering ranks in the world. American ability to remain oblivious to these new movements ended on September 11, 2001. The Islamist fanatics in the global Salafi jihad (the violent, revivalist social movement of which al Qaeda is a part) target the West, but their operations mercilessly slaughter thousands of people of all races and religions throughout the world. The author challenges conventional wisdom about terrorism, observing that the key to mounting an effective defense against future attacks is a thorough understanding of the networks that allow these new terrorists to proliferate. Based on intensive study of biographical data on 172 participants in the jihad, this book gives us the first social explanation of the global wave of activity. The author traces its roots in Egypt, gestation in Afghanistan during the Soviet-Afghan war, exile in the Sudan, and growth of branches worldwide, including detailed accounts of life within the Hamburg and Montreal cells that planned attacks on the United States. US government strategies to combat the jihad are based on the traditional reasons an individual was thought to turn to terrorism : poverty, trauma, madness, and ignorance. The author refutes all these notions, showing that, for the vast majority of the mujahedin, social bonds predated ideological commitment, and it was these social networks that inspired alienated young Muslims to join the jihad. These men, isolated for the rest of society, were transformed into fanatics

yearning for martyrdom and eager to kill. The tight bonds of family and friendship, paradoxically enhanced by the tenuous links between the cell groups (making it difficult for authorities to trace connections), contributed to the jihad movement's flexibility and longevity. And although the author's systematic analysis highlights the crucial role the networks played in the terrorists' success, he states unequivocally that the level of commitment and choice to embrace violence were entirely their own.'

JAPAN--NATIONAL SECURITY Japan's Re-Emergence as a 'Normal' Military Power / by Christopher W. Hughes. - Oxford, UK : Oxford University Press, 2004. 156 p. : ill.; 24 cm.

'Is Japan re-emerging as a 'normal', or even a great, military power in regional and global security affairs ? This paper assesses the overall trajectory of Japan's security policy over the last decade, and the impact of a changing Japanese military posture on the stability of East Asia. The paper examines Japan's evolving security debate, set against the background of a shifting international environment and domestic policymaking system; the status of Japan's national military capabilities and constitutional prohibitions; pot-Cold War developments in the US-Japan alliance; and Japan's role in multilateral regional and security dialogue, UNPKO, and US-led 'coalitions of the willing'. It concludes that Japan is undoubtedly moving along the trajectory of becoming a more assertive military power, and that this trend has been accelerated post-9/11. Japan is unlikely, though, to channel its military power through greatly different frameworks than at present. Japan will opt for the enhanced, and probably inextricable, integration of its military capabilities into the US-Japan alliance, rather than pursuing options for greater autonomy or multilateralism. Japan's strengthened role as the defensive shield for the offensive sword of US power projection will only serve to bolster US military hegemony in East Asia and globally.'

The author expresses doubts as to whether actions by some permanent members of the Security Council starting from September 1996 until April 2003, in the Balkans and the Persian Gulf, are legitimate under the just war theory, or any other rules of international law, and analyses in detail the claims made by the allied powers to justify their actions.

'Just War Theory is the governing moral doctrine for all the major democratic militaries. This book is a close study of a critical component of Just War Theory, the moral status of noncombatants. In this post-September 11, 2001 time of cascading unconventional or 'dirty' wars, issues of treatment of noncombatants have resonance across national lines. One of the top security issues is whether democracies and other states pursue their national security interests within the limits of Just War reasoning or break out of these limits in prosecuting war and security measures against terrorist organizations. The author examines the flaws that this complex body of moral reasoning often exhibits, arguing that many of the shortcomings of the theory can be resolved using Kantian methodology and the theory of autonomy.'

'The book opens with a brief description of how the humanitarian effect of landmines did not become a political issue until the late 1980s, despite their indiscriminate use since World War I. A further emphasis is the need to expand conventional thinking on landmines, and relate mine action to postwar reconstruction initiatives. The bulk of the book is devoted to the technical aspects of mine action - surveying, marking, and clearance. The author sees surveying and marking as vital to ensuring that priorities are in accordance with the requirements of mine-affected populations, and not the wishes of donors or other agencies. The use of mechanical clearance techniques is soundly criticized, with the view that mechanized demining equipment often serves the needs of manufacturers and the arms companies that frequently produce them. Defying current thinking and practices, the author is highly sceptical of mine awareness initiatives, claiming that resources devoted to awareness are better spent on mine clearance.'

'This history of NATO concentrates on the differences within the alliance, particularly between the US and its European partners. NATO's war against terrorism began on September 11, 2001. Invoking Article 5 was a fitting response to the assault on the United States, but the spirit did not last long. Within a few weeks, old fissures within the alliance re-emerged, threatening once again to dissolve an entity that had survived over half a century.

had been the major purpose of its existence. But since the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact and of the Russian Empire itself, NATO has struggled to seek new raisons d'etre, and has succeeded to some degree in finding them in crisis management in Europe and in areas beyond the boundaries of the alliance. The absence of a traditional enemy to serve as a centripetal force, along with the recognition of the US as the lone superpower, has placed a focus on internal troubles of the alliance that had been obscured in the past by the presence of a common enemy. Too little attention has been paid to such West-West conflicts which arguably have been more frequent and more bitter, if not more dangerous, than the struggle with the Soviet Union. Differences among the allies began with the formation of the alliance itself. Some were resolved, others persisted. Many of them related to 'out of area' issues in which the Soviet Union was not involved or only peripherally concerned. How the alliance managed the unequal relationship in the past may offer insights into the common ground the alliance partners can identify in the 21st century.'

'On May 11, 1998, three nuclear devices exploded under the Thar, or Great Indian Desert, shaking the surrounding villages - and the rest of the world. The immediate effect was to plunge US-India relations, already vexed by decades of tension and estrangement, into a new and acrimonious standoff. The situation deteriorated further when Pakistan responded with a test of its own two weeks later. This book is the revealing, authoritative account of the intensive talks that the United States conducted on parallel tracks with the South Asian nuclear powers over the next two and a half years. Bill Clinton's point man for that high-stakes diplomacy takes us behind the scenes of one of the most intriguing and consequential political dramas of our time, reconstructing what happened - and why - with narrative verve, rich human detail, and penetrating analysis.

September 2000, in the most extensive engagement ever between the United States and India, Deputy Secretary of State Strobe Talbott and Minister of External Affairs Jaswant Singh met fourteen times in seven countries on three continents. They grappled with the urgent issues of arms control and nonproliferation, but they also discussed their visions for the US-India relationship, the potential for economic and strategic cooperation between the two countries, and the implications of Hindu nationalism for the evolution of Indian society, politics, and security. Their personal rapport helped raise the level of trust between the two governments. As a result, the United States was able to play a crucial role in defusing the crisis between India and Pakistan over the contested territory of Kashmir in the summer of 1999 - thus, perhaps, averting a war that could have escalated to nuclear conflagration. The Talbott-Singh dialogue laid the ground for Clinton's transformational visit to South Asia in March 2000. The presidential journey opened a new chapter in relations between the United States and India. It also set the scene for US cooperation with both India and Pakistan in the war against terror after September 11, 2001. In addition to providing an insider's perspective on a fascinating and instructive episode in diplomatic history, the story told here is vital background for understanding what happens next in a region that is home to nearly a quarter of humanity and that was, at the beginning of the twenty-first century, 'the most dangerous place on earth'.'

'In recent years, Pakistan has emerged as a strategic player on the world stage - both as a potential rogue state armed with nuclear weapons and as an American ally in the war against terrorism.

Pakistan's future is uncertain. Can it fulfill its promise of joining the community of nations as a moderate Islamic state, at peace with its neighbors, or could it dissolve completely into a failed state, spewing out terrorists and nuclear weapons in several directions ?'

'This book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date introduction to the theory, practice and politics of contemporary peacekeeping. It evaluates the changing characteristics of the contemporary environment in which peacekeepers operate, what role peacekeeping plays in wider processes of global politics, the growing impact of non-state actors and the major challenges facing peacekeepers in the future. Drawing on a wide range of historical and contemporary case studies, including Afghanistan, Cambodia, Cyprus, the Democratic Republic of Congo, East Timor, El Salvador, Haiti, Liberia, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, Somalia and the former Yugoslavia, this book develops an original conceptual framework to chart the evolution of the role of peacekeeping in global politics, and highlights the unique characteristics of different types of peacekeeping operations. Part 1 examines concepts and issues related to peacekeeping in global politics. Part 2 charts the historical development of peacekeeping from 1945 to the present. In part 3, separate chapters are devoted to different types of peacekeeping operations : traditional peacekeeping; managing transition; wider peacekeeping; peace enforcement; and peace-support operations. Part 4 looks forward and examines developments in global politics that are presenting serious challenges to the concept and practice of peacekeeping, namely, globalization, the privatization of security, preventing violent conflict and the establishment of transitional administrations.'

'He emerged from the shadows of the Soviet secret policy and lowly government jobs to become the most powerful man in Russia. Since Vladimir Putin was propelled into the Kremlin in 2000, he has defied domestic and foreign expectations, by presiding over a period of strong economic growth, significant restructuring, and rising international prestige. Yet Putin himself remains a man of mystery and contradictions; he has pursued an increasingly pro-western foreign policy and liberal economic reforms, while continuing a hardline war in Chechnya and introducing tighter controls over parliament, the regions and the media, which are reminiscent of the Soviet era. This is the first analysis of contemporary Russia under its new president to be written by a western journalist. It digs behind the rumours and speculation, tracing Putin's rise to power, and assessing how he has performed in office, and the changing nature of the Russia he rules. It draws on interviews with Putin himself, and a number of the country's leading figures, as well as many ordinary Russians. With his re-election campaign imminent, it is possible to draw conclusions about Putin's thinking, style and effectiveness as President; and about the evolution of Russia during his period in office. The lessons are important for anyone interested in the recent past and future of

This comprehensive study shows how the global resurgence of religion confronts International Relations theory with a theoretical challenge comparable to that raised by the end of the Cold War or the emergence of globalization. The volume tries to shake the secular foundational myths of the discipline and to outline the need for an expansion into religiously inspired spheres of thought. It also challenges the most condemning accusation against religion : the view that the politicization of religion is always a threat to security and inimical to the resolution of conflict. Finally, the task of demystifying religion is taken further with an argument for a stronger and more creative political engagement of the worldwide religious traditions in the contemporary globalized era.'

'Russian military capacity remains a major consideration for global security even in the post-Soviet era. This book assesses today's Russian military and analyzes its possible future direction. The contributors - experts on the subject from both Russia and the West - consider not only how Russia has built its military capacity but also the policies and doctrines that have shaped Russia's defense posture. They discuss such topics as the downsizing of the Russian military, Russia's use of military power in regional conflicts, and the management of Russia's nuclear weapons. For more than a decade, Russian leaders have struggled to formulate security and defense policies that protect Russia's borders and project Russia's influence. The contributors to this book find that the choices Russian leaders have made have been significantly influenced by the military reforms Russia has attempted to implement since the collapse of the Soviet Union. The protracted and intense debate over military reform has been

'This book analyses the cardinal changes that have recently occurred in the Russian state, its principles of governance and its foreign-policy orientation. It reviews the recent changes in Russian approaches to geo-strategy and the geopolitical development patterns that influenced the transformation of Russian military strategic thinking and foreign policy in the beginning of the twenty-first century. It draws attention to defence and security policies prior to and after 11 September 2001 and the evolution of civil-military relations in Russia. The book demonstrates how the scale of political, social-economic, territorial-administrative and military reforms clearly transformed the country in a systemic manner, which is unequalled since the collapse of the Soviet Union. As a result the book helps us to understand the roots and reasons for Russia's decision to increase its engagement with the West after 11 September 2001, as well as the pitfalls of such 'geo-strategic shifts', the success of which should not be taken for granted.'

Medvedev, Sergei 'The paper examines the historical and political roots behind a turn in Russian foreign policy undertaken by President Vladimir Putin in the wake of the terrorist acts of 9/11. Current Russian foreign policy vastly differs from the previous decades in that, using the opportunity and the rhetoric of the war on terrorism, Putin made a normative choice in favor of Westernization and strategic partnership with the United States and Europe. The paper posits that the realignment in Russian foreign and security policy is of a long-term revolutionary nature. This is not an ad hoc marriage of convenience, nor a policy of playing a weaker hand, but a profound reappraisal of Russia's national interests and place in the world, defying the centuries-old imperial paradigms. In order to appreciate the magnitude of this change, the paper looks beyond the Putin presidency and transformations of the past decade, into the historical roots of Russian statehood and foreign policy. This is an essay about foreign policy as explained by history, culture and geography.'

'In March 2000 Vladimir Putin was elected President of the Russian Federation, the largest country in the world. In the space of just a few years Putin's radical reforms in the areas of domestic and foreign policy have made a major impact on Russian politics and society and we have witnessed a new orientation in Russia's external relations with the West. But is Putin an authoritarian or a democrat ? Does his presidency signal a break with Russia's past or is he just another autocratic Tsar in modern clothing ? Bringing together a team of internationally renowned scholars from Britain, the USA and Russia, this book provides a critical analysis of Putin's domestic and foreign policies. This is a lively, comprehensive, and highly accessible account of contemporary Russian politics. There are fifteen chapters covering such key areas as : leadership and regime change, political parties and democratisation, economy and society, regional politics, the war in Chechnya, and Russian foreign policy.'

'A prominent Russian politician who served as prime minister, foreign minister, and head of foreign intelligence during the 1990s, the author has been part of all vital decisions on Russian domestic and foreign policy for the past two decades. His memoir is both an insider's account of post-perestroika Russian politics and a statement from a representative of the enlightened Russian establishment on the nation's relationship with America and the world. The author is a specialist in the Middle East, and his personal involvement in the problems of that region make his commentary particularly valuable as he articulates Russia's view of the conflicts there and its stances towards Irak, Israel, and Palestine. Primakov also offers pertinent opinions on the Gulf War, NATO enlargement, spying, and other aspects of contemporary international relations, and he gives personal assessments of a wide variety of major players, from Saddam Hussein and Yasir Arafat to Madeleine Albright and Bill Clinton. Providing behind-the-scenes information about government shake-ups in Moscow, the history of speculative privatizations, the formation of the new political and economic oligarchy, and much more, this book is an invaluable aid to political analysts, historians, and anyone interested in Russia's recent past and future plans.'

'The terrorist attacks on September 11 were unique and unprecedented in many ways, but the day will stand in our memories particularly because of our ability to watch the spectacle unfold. The blazing towers crumbling into dust, black smoke rising from the Pentagon, the unrecognizable remains of a fourth airplane in a quiet Pennsylvania field - those images, while disturbing and surreal, provide an important vehicle for interdisciplinary dialogue within media studies, showing us how horrific national disasters are depicted in various media. Each contributor to this volume offers a fresh perspective on how the media transformed the 9/11 crisis into an ideological tour de force, examining why certain readings of these events were preferred, and discussing the significance of those preferred meanings. Yet the contributors do not limit themselves to such standard news media such as newspapers and television. This anthology also covers comic books, songs, advertising, Web sites, and other nontraditional media outlets. Using a wide range of interdisciplinary approaches, contributors explore such topics as the amount of time dedicated to coverage, how the attacks were presented in the United States and abroad, how conflicting viewpoints were addressed, and how various artistic outlets dealt with the tragedy.'

It also highlights steps that can be taken to assist the Afghan people to recover from the consequences of the fragmentation of their society, and its subordination to an anti-modernist force of a kind unprecedented in Afghanistan's recent history.

The volume reveals how the pre-09/11-era of contemporary economic history gave birth to a nexus of a) globalization b) increased systemic vulnerability and complexity and c) the transitions of terrorism. As a result, the post-09/11- era is one which should incorporate risk analysis audits on a regular basis, political and geopolitical risk research, the use of quantitive risk assessment and qualitative risk analysis to implement risk strategy planning, its management and appropriate risk transfer considerations.

ID number: 80019739 Type: M Library Location: 327 /01228 ISBN: 0813123151 Author(s): 1. Gray, Colin S. Bibliography: p. 175-189. Includes index. 'The demise of the Soviet Union in the early 1990s radically and permanently altered dominant twentieth-century notions of 'balance of power'. With the competing policy options of international cooperation and unilateral military, political, and economic dominance, the United States continues to struggle with its role as the world's only superpower in the new century. The events of September 11, 2001, served to further polarize political debates, with some policy makers emphasizing a multilateral diplomatic approach to fighting terrorism while others demand immediate and possibly unilateral military action to preserve American interests and the existing world order. The author presents here a clear and sophisticated argument that the United States is - ans should continue to be - the world's guardian. The book sets forth a strategic analysis with nine basic themes as guides to where, when, and how America should be involved in international security affairs. The author's constructive critique of recent trends in national security is comprehensive, rooting defense issues and prospective solutions in both US national security policy and the emerging international security environment. In an era marked by terrorism, political unrest, and the increased interdependence of the world community, the author describes and prescribes America's continuing role as 'sheriff'. According to the author, world order is not self-enforcing and nations do not always act reasonably or predictably. Therefore, the author concludes, the US serves itself by selectively serving the world. He argues that military, strategic, and political effectiveness are separate issues and that goals for each of these areas should be effectively articulated to the American public and the world community. Additionally, he maintains that technology alone does not dictate military success and that the current transformation of the US military must be engineered in the context of a well-defined global strategy.'

Moving from the war in Afghanistan and its aftermath to the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, the continuing development of al-Qaida and its associates, through to the war on Iraq, the author presents a uniquely cogent week-by-week analysis of these rapid and traumatic events. In a world in which the US and other states of the Atlantic community are increasingly speaking a different language to that of the rest of the world, the author offers a vital critical assessment of the language of dominance and control as 'the New American Century'

unfolds. For the US in particular, the post-9/11 world is one in which it is essential to maintain firm control of international security, extending to pre-emptive military action.

Counter-terrorism : Containment and Beyond / by Jonathan Stevenson. - Oxford, UK : Oxford University Press, 2004. 128 p.; 24 cm. (Adelphi papers, 0567-932X; 367) ID number: 80019695 Type: M Library Location: 323 /00865 ISBN: 0198567596 Author(s): 1. Stevenson, Jonathan 'The 9/11 attacks revealed that the transnational terrorist threat facing the US and its partners was far more dangerous than most had previously discerned. It was now clear that al-Qaeda intended to, and could threaten the West's - particularly the US' - political and military leverage, with the aim of shifting the balance of power from the West to Islam after a violent global confrontation. In that sense, the new terrorist threat is strategic, and it has led to a worldwide mobilisation comparable to that required by a world war. This paper argues that prevailing in the 'war' on terror, much like victory in the Cold War, entails containment, deterrence, outperformance and engagement. Military power is secondary to intelligence, law enforcement, enlightened social policy and diplomacy. Diplomatic engagement with the larger Muslim world is paramount as a means of denying al-Qaeda not merely recruits but the 'clash of civilisations' it seeks. The US-led intervention in Iraq, though intended to introduce democratic reform in the wider Middle East, has so far antagonised Islam and strengthened Islamist terrorism. This suggests that coercive or aggressively ideological diplomacy is unlikely to win over an Islamic population biased by anti-Western propaganda. Successful Western diplomacy will have to be discreet, nuanced and incremental.'

ID number: 80019719 Type: M Library Location: 659 /00095 ISBN: 0745314449 Author(s): 1. MacLaughlin, Greg Bibliography: p. 219-228. Includes index. 'The author examines here the work of the war correspondent. He addresses the tendency for Western journalists to take sides in civil conflicts such as Bosnia and Kosovo; the media politics of international intervention in humanitarian crises; the seductive power of military 'public relations'; and of course the commercial and technological pressures of an intensely concentrated, competitive news media environment. The book features interviews with prominent war and foreign correspondents. A case study in military-media relations includes a look at NATO's propaganda operation during the 1999 bombing of Yugoslavia and Kosovo and features interviews with NATO press spokesperson, Jamie Shea, and some of the journalists involved such as Mark Laity (BBC) and Jake Lynch (Sky News). The author argues that the future for war reporting and foreign correspondence will be determined not so much by professional imperatives but by military pressures and market forces outside the control of the journalist. The self-serving myth that war stories are no longer what 'consumers' want disguises the reality that foreign news is becoming too expensive to produce.

Unless 'our boys' are directly involved in combat, wars and rumours of wars will continue to slip down the media agenda as 'the rest of the day's news'.'
