Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: very good. First Printing [Stated]. x, 331, [3] pages. Illustrations. Notes. Bibliography. Index. Douglas Carl Peifer is a Professor of History and Strategy at the US Air War College in Montgomery, Alabama. Presidential Decisions in the Maine, Lusitania, and Panay Incidents by Douglas Carl Peifer Provides the only comparative analysis of presidential crisis decision making and naval incidents. It narrates dramatic incidents in American history that occasionally pushed the country to war. It provokes new ways of thinking about contemporary naval incidents. Throughout US history, presidents have had vastly different reactions to naval incidents. Though some incidents have been resolved diplomatically, others have escalated to outright war. What factors influence the outcome of a naval incident, especially when calls for retribution mingle with recommendations for restraint? Given the rise of long range anti-ship and anti-air missile systems, coupled with tensions in East Asia, the Persian Gulf, and the Black and Baltic Seas, the question is more relevant than ever for US naval diplomacy.In Choosing War, Douglas Carl Peifer compares the ways in which different presidential administrations have responded when American lives were lost at sea. He examines in depth three cases: the Maine incident (1898), which led to war in the short term; the Lusitania crisis (1915), which set the trajectory for intervention; and the Panay incident (1937), which was settled diplomatically. While evaluating Presidents William McKinley, Woodrow Wilson, and Franklin Delano Roosevelt's responses to these incidents, Peifer lucidly reflects on the options they had available and the policies they ultimately selected. The case studies illuminate how leadership, memory, and shifting domestic policy shape presidential decisions, providing significant insights into the connections between naval incidents, war, and their historical contexts. Rich in dramatic narrative and historical perspective, Choosing War offers an essential tool for confronting future naval crises.

Erstausgabe
Trade paperback. Zustand: Good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. The format is approximately 6.75 inches by 9.5 inches. xiv, 170 pages. Illustrated cover has some wear and soiling. Illustrations. Notes, Contributors. Bibliography. Index. This includes Case Studies on American Intervention in Somalia, the Rwanda Genocide, and Intervention in Cote d"Ivoire. Dr. Douglas C. Peifer is on the Faculty of the US Air War College. He holds master of arts and doctor of philosophy degrees in history from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Peifer assembled this volume of case studies on operational responses to genocide as part of a project at the Air Command and Staff College (ACSC) in the spring of 2006. His publications include a book on The Three German Navies, and articles in The Journal of Military History, War in History, War and Society, and The German Studies Review. His research focuses on European security issues and the challenges posed by genocide and mass killings. This monograph seeks to contribute to the urgent task of developing realistic strategies for preventing and stopping genocide and mass killings. Neither humanitarian operations in a passive environment nor combat operations serve as appropriate models for interventions geared specifically at stopping genocide. The concept of UN Charter, chapter 7 peace enforcement operations comes closest, but US, NATO, and UN doctrine on "peace enforcement" remains sketchy and ill-defined. The four case studies that comprise this monograph add an important ingredient to the literature on genocide intervention in that they provide "actionable" strategic and operational ideas. Drawing upon the experience of Somalia, Rwanda, and the Côte d'Ivoire, the authors present thoughtful recommendations for the future based on lessons derived from the past. Each case study presents an analysis of the patterns of genocide within specific historical and cultural settings, an assessment of the international and American response to deepening crises, and an array of recommendations for more effective intervention strategies compatible with limited domestic support for humanitarian interventions. All the contributors to this volume are keenly aware of and concerned about the ongoing genocide in Darfur; but given evolving developments in the region ranging from attacks on African Union (AU) peacekeepers to ongoing efforts to organize a more robust AU/UN hybrid peacekeeping operation (UNAU Mission in Darfur), we felt that any assessment of intervention efforts in Sudan would be incomplete and partial at this time. Instead, we encourage readers to consult the Web sites of various organizations dedicated to providing timely information, analysis, and assessments of ongoing genocides, mass killings, and intervention efforts. The case studies in this volume draw upon Somalia, Rwanda, and the Côte d'Ivoire rather than Darfur because these earlier crises allow historical distance, enabling assessments that will have a longer shelf life than those based on an ongoing, unfolding crisis.
