Hardback. Zustand: Good. In 2003, the United States invaded Iraq, and in the years that have followed, America has found itself fighting a widespread popular insurrection with an army trained for conventional warfare. Like King George and his advisers, President Bush and his cabinet misunderstood the nature of the problem facing them and underestimated its scale. Both imperial Britain and modern American failed to commit enough troops early on, nor could they resolve the dilemmas of counter-insurgency: how to wage military action and isolate the insurgents without alienating the local population. The British Army learned from its mistakes to remain a dominant world power; the Americans, by contrast, seem to be forgetting the lessons of their founding fathers.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. The sociologist Thomas Sowell writes, "We need to confront the most blatant fact that has persisted across centuries of social history-vast ddifferences in productivity among peoples, and the economic and other consequences of such differences." Poverty demeans dignity, shrinks the soul, wastes potential, and inflicts suffering on three billion people on our planet. We must also acknowledge that, during the past fifty yyears, the record in international assistance to the least developed countries has been disappointing; the economics-based abstractions developed in the think tanks of Europe and North America are insufficient. In the River They Swim is the antithesis of that search for solutions to the next big theory of global poverty. From the fresh perspective of advisors on the frontlines of development to the insight of leaders like President Paul Kagame of Rwanda and Pastor Rick Warren, it tells the story of change in the microcosms of emerging businesses, industries, and governments. These essays display a personal nature to their work that rigorous analysis alone cannot explain. We learn that a Sufi master can teach us about the different levels of knowledge, the "different ways to know a river." These practitioners could have written about its length, its source, its depth, its width, the power of its current, and the life it contains. They could have invested time and money to travel to that river so that they could sit on its shores and look at it, feel the sand that borders it, and watch the birds at play over it. Instead, they dove in to swim in the river, felt its current along their bodies, and tasted something of it. They wondered, briefly, if they had the strength to swim its length, and now they share the answer. If human development is a river, the authors in this volume, and perhaps some readers, will no longer be satisfied to stand along its banks. …

Hardback. Zustand: Good. An analysis of the problems faced by the UN and NATO in the post-Cold War era, this text is an account of peacekeeping in Bosnia in 1994. Taken from a diary, contemporary documents and photographs collected at the time, January 1994 to January 1995, this is the testimony of the former commander of the United Nations Protection Force. Telling the story of how 23,000 young peace keepers struggled to sustain the peace process during a time when many influences within Bosnia and abroad were attempting to undermine the efforts of the UN, this text demonstrates that the aims of the mission were achieved. The difficulties of combining peace keeping with humanitarian action, the extent of manipulation of international opinion by the media and politicians and the key role played by the US and the UN in reversing Clinton's policy on Bosnia are considered.…
