Zustand: FINE. First printing. "On the tenth anniversary of the final U. S. withdrawal, the Asia Society sponsored a conference on the Vietnam experience in American literature at which leading writers, critics, publishers, commentators, and academics wrestled with this phenomenon. Drawing on the synergy of this conference, Timothy J. Lomperis has produced an original work that focuses on the growing body of literatureincluding novels, personal accounts, and oral histories which describes the experiences of American soldiers in Vietnam as well as the experience of veterans upon their return home." The result is a useful, although not comprehensive guide to the published literature. Includes a bibliographic commentary by John Clark Pratt, an index to this commentary, bibliography, list of seminar participants, conference program, and index. xii, 174 pp. Very near fine in a like dustjacket (corners slightly bumped).…

Trade paperback. Zustand: Very good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. x, [2], 192, [4] pages. Map. Footnotes, Bibliography. Index. Timothy J. Lomperis is professor and chair of the department of political science at Saint Louis University. He had previously been an army intelligence officer in Viet Nam. When this work was published the author was an assistant professor of political science at Duke University. More than a decade after the end of direct military involvement, the ambiguous lessons of the Viet Nam War have continued to haunt American foreign policy. In The War Everyone Lost- and Won, Timothy Lomperis examines the struggle for political power in Viet Nam as a conflict fought on two distinct levels for two separate audiences- one Vietnamese and the other global. In Viet Nam, it was a forty-five-year contest for political legitimacy between Viet Nam's Nationalists and Communists. Internationally, it was a duel between America's foreign policy of containment and the Communist strategy of Maoist people's war. Given this dual framework, Lomperis identifies the true successes and failures of the United States' was effort in Viet Nam. The War Everyone Lost- and Won is a complete and cohesive political history of the war and a significant reevaluation of its outcome.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. 456 pages. Timothy Lomperis persuasively argues the ironic point that the lessons of Ame rican involvement in Vietnam are not to be found in any analysis of the war by i tself. Rather, he proposes a comparison of the Vietnam experience with seven oth er cases of Western intervention in communist insurgencies during the Cold War e ra: China, Indochina, Greece, the Philippines, Malaya, Cambodia, and Laos. Lom peris maintains that popular insurgencies are manifestations of crises in politi cal legitimacy, which occur as a result of the societal stresses caused by moder nization. Therefore, he argues, any intervention in a 'people's war' will succee d or fail depending on how it affects this crisis. The unifying theme in the cas es Lomperis discusses is the power of land reform and electoral democracy to cem ent political legitimacy and therefore deflect revolutionary movements. Applying this theory to the ongoing Sendero Luminoso insurgency in Peru, Lomperis makes a qualified prediction of that conflict's outcome. He concludes that a global tr end toward democratization has produced a new era of 'people's rule.' Editorial Reviews From Library Journal In his third work on the Vietnam War (after The W ar Everyone Lost?And Won, LJ 1/84, and Reading the Wind, Duke Univ., 1986), Lomp eris, a former army intelligence officer in Vietnam and currently an instructor in political science at West Point, places the war within the broader context of Communist insurgency against Western-supported regimes throughout the Cold War. Lomperis examines and compares the Chinese liberation struggle; civil wars in G reece, Cambodia, and Laos; rebellion in the Philippines; and the carnage in Peru so that the sophisticated reader can see the similarities and differences among.…
