Wraps. Zustand: Very good. Presumed first edition/first printing. x, 26 pages. Figures. References. Cover has slight wear and soiling. From an on-line posting: "On July 26, 1948, President Harry Truman issued Executive Order 9981, ending the practice of segregating the military services by race. That same year, the Army allowed women to join the services on an equal basis with men. Both of these steps preceded the larger societal changes that allowed fully equal treatment of all types of American citizens in military service. Just over 2 years ago, Congress repealed the Don t Ask, Don t Tell policy, allowing for gays and lesbians to openly take their place in the military. Our procedures and policies for successful gender integration have grown and evolved. The authors share five principles for leaders and commanders on the prevention of sexual harassment and assault, as well as associated Tips for implementation: (1) Leaders identify and break chains of circumstance; (2) Education is preferable to litigation; (3) What s electronic is public; (4) Don t ignore pornography; and, (5) Unit climate is the commander s responsibility. These principles and their associated tips are not panaceas, and these recommendations are submitted for discussion and feedback. U.S. Army Lieutenant General Robert L. Caslen, JR., currently serves as the 59th Superintendent of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. He previously served as the Chief of the Office of Security Cooperation-Iraq and as the commander of the Combined Arms Center at Fort Leavenworth, KS. His awards and decorations include the Defense Distinguished Service Medal, Distinguished Service Medal with 1 Oak Leaf Cluster, and others. Lieutenant General Caslen holds master s degrees from Long Island University and Kansas State University and is a 1975 graduate of West Point.".

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Contents: Preface. Introduction. 1. The Basques in Spain and repercussions in France: Case I. 2. The Kurds in Turkey: case II. 3. The ethnic Albanians in Macedonia: case III. 4. The failure of Russian democratization and the tragedy of Chechnya: case IV. 5. Palestinians, Israelis, and a future Palestinian state: case V. Conclusion. Selected bibliography. Index. "The basic argument of this book is that liberal democracy is a security imperative in today's global security environment. Since terrorist groups change and evolve, the best way for states to win legitimacy vis-a-vis these organizations is by adhering to liberal democratic values, cooperating with other states, and applying prudent counter terrorist tactics. As the United States assesses its homeland defense posture, it must resist any temptation to weaken its liberal democratic values, encouraging other states to adhere to liberal democratic values as well. The authors argue that terrorism cannot be treated as a monolithic threat, nor addressed merely as a matter of tactics and means with no regard for the ends. In fact, good policy can only be crafted with an understanding of the ways in which terrorists integrate their means to secure their goals. While democratic and transitional governments must take aggressive action to secure their populations against attack, those governments that recognize the real grievances of the terrorists can also take action to addresses those grievances. This two-pronged approach simultaneously bolsters state legitimacy across the ethnic and majority populations, while demonstrating state effectiveness regarding security. Interstate cooperation, which affects domestic and foreign policies, requires some convergence of political cultures among those cooperating states. This book begins by analyzing five hotspot situations and their regional effects: the Basques in Spain, the ethnic Albanians in Macedonia, the Kurds in Turkey, the Chechens and Russia; and the Palestinians, Israelis, and a future Palestinian State. These cases shed light on the ways in which one can understand, characterize, and categorize terrorism; and they provide insights into the concepts of political legitimacy, liberal democracy, political culture, and political community."
