Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Economists used to claim that material self-interest and the rational choices of the individual were universal factors that transcended cultural values and differences. This position has been challenged by critics, who have pointed out the methodological and philosophical weaknesses of this approach. They dispute the idea that social order can be explained as the product of the choices of individual agents, and that social agents operate independently of their social and cultural values and norms. Today, there is virtual agreement, not only among students of culture, but also among social scientists that 'culture counts' in both politics and society as well as in international relations. In this book, a number of international political scientists, economists, philosophers, and humanist scholars address the role of culture, ethnicity, and religion in contemporary states and societies.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. Mike Boss (dust jacket artwork) (illustrator). The format is approximately 9.25 inches by 12.25 inches. Colorful endpapers. Illustrations. Appendix I: What Went Wrong With "Wongo Wongo". Appendix II The Aircraft And The Crews: Operation "Tidal Wave". Bibliography. Publisher's customer outreach return postcard laid in. This large format book was produced in part to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Black Sunday raid and includes photographs that had not previously been published. Tidal Wave! August 1, 1943. The legendary low level raid on Ploesti, Rumania by the 376th, 93rd, 44th, 389th and 98th Bomb Groups, is described by author/historian Mike Hill in this new large format, 50th Anniversary book. Never before published photos taken during the raid, many from the original negatives, dramatically show the raid, and give the reader a sense of the intensity of fierce flak, and aerial combat. Mike has interviewed many of the surviving veterans of the mission, giving the story a personal flavor from the unique viewpoint of the crew members. Also included is a complete listing of the aircraft and crews that flew the mission. Mike Hill also the author of The Desert Rats: The 98th Bomb Group and the August 1943 Ploesti Raid. Officially known as Operation Tidal Wave, the Ploesti Raid occurred on 1 August 1943, and because it marked the second highest loss suffered by the United States Army Air Force (USAAF) in a single operation, it was afterward nicknamed Black Sunday. The plan was to send in a swarm of B-24 bombers on a low-altitude bombing mission to concentrate on refineries in the Romanian city of Ploesti. This mission was part of the World War II "oil campaign," and since Ploesti was among the major oil producers in Europe, with 30 percent of the Axis' fuel supply coming from its refineries, the USAAF took a shot at it in a bid to cripple Hitler's fuel supply and handicap the Axis war machine. The 98th and 376th Bombardment groups of the 9th Air Force were given the assignment, and they were joined by the 44th, 93rd and 389th Bombardment groups from the Eighth Air Force. Only one bomber type was employed on this expedition: the B-24 Liberator. The plan looked pretty straightforward: a total of 1,751 airmen and 178 B-24 bombers headed by Brigadier General Uzal G. Ent would fly from airfields in Benghazi, across the Adriatic Sea and Albania's Pindus Mountains. They would split into two groups, with one group comprising the 376th and 93rd Bomb Groups commanded by Colonel Keith K. Compton, and another group comprising the 98th, 44th, and 389th Bomb Groups led by Colonel John R. (Killer) Kane. The separate formations would enter Southwestern Romania through Southern Yugoslavia, and would approach Ploesti from the east. They would then ultimately commence the aerial strike from the north, hitting the nine Ploesti refineries simultaneously at low altitudes. The blueprint for the whole raid was drawn up by Col. Jacob Edward Smart, who had followed the details of an initial attack on the target by a small group of B-24 Liberators of the Halverson Project (HALPRO). The B-24s had faced minimal encounters by the Luftwaffe, so it was assumed that with more groups of B-24 bombers, heavier damage could be inflicted in a shorter time. The mission was slated to last one day and integrated the highest number of heavy bombers at the time. However, the Luftwaffe's defenses had been underestimated, much to the misfortune of the USAAF. General Alfred Gerstenberg had, following the initial attack by the HALPRO, fortified defenses around Ploesti. In fact, his defense system, comprising hundreds of high-caliber 8.8 cm Flak 18 barrel and 10 cm Flak 38 antiaircraft guns, and several other low-caliber guns, was among Europe's most rigid air defense network. The small-caliber guns were all concealed in damaged cars, haystacks, and mock buildings. Additionally, there were three fighter groups, comprising fifty-two BF 109 and Bf 110 fighter aircraft alongside a small number of Romanian fighters, stationed within flight range of Ploesti and awaiting orders in case of necessity. After a rather stressful and disorganized flight, including accidents due to orders for absolute radio silence, the USAAF bomber groups arrived over Romania in scattered formations. They didn't find the Axis stronghold unprepared. Signal intelligence on all Allied operations as far off as North Africa was regularly updated from a Luftwaffe station in Athens, and German fighters were already hovering in search of the USAAF intruders. Compton's group bombarded Ploesti from the south, while Kane's group, coming a bit later, bombarded from the North. They received heavy return fire from Gerstenberg's aerial defenses, which struck from its concealed antiaircraft guns. By the end of the last wave of attack which left Ploesti, only about 88 B-24s, mostly in awful shape, managed to return to Benghazi. An overall loss of 660 men was recorded with about 440 confirmed dead. Also, another tragedy struck when a B-24 bomber piloted by Jose Carioca crashed into a women's prison in Ploesti, causing 100 deaths and 200 injuries. First Edition [stated], presumed first printing.
