CONTIENE LAS FOTOGRAFÍAS DE LA EDICIÓN ORIGINAL Ya se ha dicho que "México Bárbaro" constituye una de esas obras sobre las cuales ha de opinar cada generación. La crónica redactada en ágil estilo periodístico que realizó John Kenneth Turner del México porfirista, tiene un fundamental valor de enfrentamiento. El autor se encuentra con la realidad de la dictadura y tiene oportunidad de sondearla, llegando en su encuesta a límites insospechables.

Allies at War is a fast-paced, narrative history, based on material drawn from over a hundred archives. Using vivid, first-hand accounts and unpublished diaries, we enter the rooms where the critical decisions were made while going beyond the confines of the Grand Alliance to examine, among other themes, the doomed Anglo-French alliance, fractious relations with General de Gaulle and the Free French, and interactions with Poland, Greece and Nationalist China.

By daytime, Ukraine is a sophisticated European country going about its business, and Kyiv seems like an enchanting city. But by night, the sirens roar, and the war begins. Ukraine is using the amount of ammunition that all of Europe produces in one day, and yet on the surface, much of the country appears to be going about its business as usual. Instead of focusing on the geopolitics or strategy of war, Lyons explores the everyday resilient civilians who are taking part in it. It is about survival, not soldiers, and in it Lyons tells us a hopeful story about humanity in the darkest of times.

In Words of War, Eric Min pulls back the curtain on when, why, and how belligerents negotiate while fighting. Of all interstate conflicts across the last two centuries, two-thirds have ended through negotiated agreement. Wartime diplomacy is thus commonly seen as a costless and mechanical process solely designed to end fighting. But as Min argues, wartime negotiations are not just peacemaking tools. They are in fact a highly strategic activity that can also help states manage, fight, and potentially win wars.

How are the wars in Palestine and Ukraine connected? Is it possible to support one occupied nation without supporting the other? The Palestinian refugees in Gaza and the people of Ukraine have much in common, now and historically. Both are resisting invasions, mass repression, and war crimes. Biden supported Ukraine’s resistance but is now backing Israel with the widely criticized 'Blank Check' policy, one hundred percent. Similarly, President Zelensky has repeatedly expressed 'unconditional support' for the Israeli apartheid state. The Hamas raid was criminal, and despicable, and ...

By daytime, Ukraine is a sophisticated European country going about its business, and Kyiv seems like an enchanting city. But by night, the sirens roar, and the war begins. Ukraine is using the amount of ammunition that all of Europe produces in one day, and yet on the surface, much of the country appears to be going about its business as usual. This is a very different audiobook as this is a very different war – one fought by a huge army of civilians, from old punk rockers to university professors and Coca Cola brand managers who are working behind the scenes to outwit the Russian army.

Uncover the stark realities tearing apart the antiwar movement worldwide: dark money from nefarious regimes run by nefarious dictators has corrupted the peace coalition that was once united in opposition to the Second Iraq War. As Alexander Reid Ross and others have uncovered, pundits and media outlets such as Russia Today have had a disproportionate level of influence on left-wing public opinion. That once-controversial claim has now become mainstream: Nancy Pelosi and Marco Rubio have called for investigations which, however, raise the issue to an inappropriate level and threaten free ...

2024年11月、米国大統領選挙が行われる。その選挙活動はすでに始まっているが、失策続きの民主党は、どのような動きをするのか。現大統領ジョー・バイデンはいまどのような窮地にいるのか。ハンター・バイデンの運命は。民主党ＶＳ共和党の勢力分布はどう変動するのか。

Since the late-1980’s, the United States’ relationship with North Korea has been driven almost entirely by the U.S. and international community’s desire to keep North Korea from becoming a nuclear power. Washington has used sanctions and trade embargoes to keep North Korea isolated and restrict its ability to develop nuclear weapons. Despite this, North Korea not only continues to survive, but they have successfully developed a nuclear weapons delivery capability. Today, Pyongyang is believed to have the capability of striking the U.S. mainland, posing a direct threat to our security....

Peace For Taiwan Is Possible presents a compelling case that war in the Taiwan Strait is not inevitable—and that a peaceful resolution is both necessary and achievable. Through twelve focused chapters, the book dismantles the assumption that conflict between the U.S. and China must come to pass and instead lays out a roadmap for diplomacy, strategic patience, and multilateral cooperation.

The Brexit vote for UK withdrawal from the EU has put the constitutional future of Northern Ireland centre-stage once again. Beyond the Border is an authoritative, timely and up-to-date guide to the provisions of the Good Friday Agreement. A compelling and accessible exploration of how the Agreement can be upheld despite Brexit uncertainties, and implemented despite political deadlock, it powerfully argues for the permanence of the Agreement and its cross-community approach, even in the event of the achievement of Irish unity.
