xx, 437 pages : illustrations, maps ; 23 cm

Abstract: With the collapse of the USSR, Russia and the fourteen other successor states that border it have had to deal with an unpredictable international environment as they face internal political turmoil and economic chaos. This book surveys relations among the new states and neighboring countries, and identifies the issues that will determine the long-term economic growth and political stability of this vast and vital region. The authors examine the historical legacies of the new states; the influence of ethnicity and religion; prospects for internal and external economic relations; foreign policy, military forces, and the debate over nuclear weapons; and the impact of Western policy in the region. --From publisher's description.

Whither the RMA :

Bracken, Paul J.
Alcalá, Raoul Henri.
Army War College (U.S.).

Strategic Studies Institute, U.S. Army War College,

Abstract: In April 1994, the Army War College's Strategic Studies Institute hosted its Fifth Annual Strategy Conference. The theme was "The Revolution in Military Affairs: Defining an Army for the 21st Century." After fourteen of the nation's leading defense scholars presented papers on the role of technology in warfare, Dr. Paul Bracken and Colonel Raoul Alcala concluded the conference by offering their views of the Army's future. Professor Bracken contends that the Army of the 21st century will be shaped by domestic concerns as much as by external threats to American security. While economic power has increased in importance in international relations, military power as traditionally conceived remains a dominant factor in determining the status of nations. Colonel Alcala holds that there is a connection between ideas and principles. He argues that doctrines will provide the basis for force structure, training, and weapons acquisition. Colonel Alcala maintains that the Army's ability to stay intellectually ahead of the technology will be, perhaps, its greatest challenge in the next century.

Women in ancient Greece /

Abstract: To read the history of ancient Greece as it has been written for centuries is to enter a thoroughly male world. This book, a comprehensive history of women in the Archaic and Classical Ages, completes our picture of ancient Greek society. Largely excluded from any public role, the women of ancient Greece nonetheless appear in various guises in the art and writing of the period, and in legal documents. These representations, in Sue Blundell's analysis, reveal a great deal about women's day-to-day experience as well as their legal and economic position - and how they were regarded by men. Here are women as portrayed in Homer, in Greek lyric poetry, and by the playwrights; the female nature as depicted in medical writings and by Aristotle; representations of women in sculpture and vase paintings. This is evidence filtered through a male view: Sappho is the only female writer of antiquity much of whose work survives. Yet these sources and others such as legal regulations and law court speeches reveal a great deal about women's lives and about their status as defined by law and by custom.

Algeria at the brink /

Lewis, William H.,
National Defense University.

National Defense University, Institute for National Strategic Studies,

Abstract: The struggle for Algeria's political and cultural future continues unabated, despite occasional attempts at dialogue by the Algerian government and the FIS leadership. For a brief period in 1994, the President, General Lamine Zeroual, appeared to signal a desire to enter into serious discussions with the two FIS leaders Madani and Belhadj who were transferred from prison to house arrest. The effort failed for several reasons: the senior military leadership was unwilling to make major concessions to jump-start talks; the Zeroual initiative was ill-received by the majority of Algerian political parties and labor organizations; the FIS leadership, for its part, suspected the Zeroual approach was a deception intended to allow the security services time to prepare for a major campaign to eradicate the Islamic opposition.

Reflections on fieldwork in Morocco /

xiii, 164 pages : illustrations ; 21 cm.

Abstract: Rarely have anthropologists regarded fieldwork as a serious object of study, although it is tacitly accepted as their major activity. How valid is the process? To what extent are the cultural data an artifact of the interaction between anthropologist and informants? Rabinow takes the view that fieldwork is an independent cultural activity, valuable in its own right and worthy of narrative report. -- Publisher description.

Shame and humiliation :

Abstract: Annotation Steinberg focuses on the narcissistic personality, identifying it as intensely self-involved and preoccupied with success and recognition as a substitute for parental love. She asserts that narcissistic leaders are most likely to use force when they fear being humiliated for failing to act and when they need to restore their diminished sense of self-worth. Providing case studies of Johnson, Nixon, and Eisenhower, Steinberg describes the childhood, maturation, and career of each president, documenting key personality attributes, and then discusses each one's Vietnam policy in light of these traits. She contends that Johnson authorized the bombing of Vietnam in part because he feared the humiliation that would come from inaction, and that Nixon escalated U.S. intervention in Cambodia in part because of his low sense of self-esteem. Steinberg contrasts these two presidents with Eisenhower, who was psychologically secure and was, therefore, able to carry out a careful and thoughtful analysis of the problem he faced in Indochina. Shame and Humiliation reveals how personality traits affect our perception of reality and offers a powerful demonstration of the impact of psychodynamics on presidential decision making.

Popular music in theory :

Abstract: "... Shows how popular music is created across a series of relationships that link together industry and audiences, producers and consumers. Explores the equally significant social processes that intervene between and across the production-consumption divide, examining the ways that popular music is mediated by a series of technological, cultural, historical, geographical and political factors. This broad framework provides signposts to various tracks taken by the sounds and images of popular music, and also highlights distinctive theoretical routes into the study of contemporary music."

Principles for a free society :

Abstract: In Principles for a Free Society, distinguished legal scholar Richard Epstein staunchly defends the principles of limited government, showing how it can and will work to the advantage of almost all of our society. But the balance between a powerful economic engine and individual liberty requires careful dilution of pure laissez-faire policies. A seminal theoretician, Epstein carefully analyzes the interaction of law and social norms and highlights the handful of restraints that provide a moral foundation to a resilient, adaptive capitalist system. His central mission is "to explain how a concern with the common good does not eviscerate the traditional protections otherwise provided to individual liberty and private property."

Introduction: Reinvigorating laissez-faire -- 1. Natural law : the utilitarian connection -- 2. Social norms versus legal commands -- 3. Harm : the gateway to liability -- 4. The benefit principle -- 5. Altruism : its uses and limits -- 6. Forfeiture : the flip side of rights -- 7. Boundaries : firm and fuzzy -- 8. From rights to remedies -- 9. Common property -- 10. Common carriers -- Epilogue: A return to fundamentals.

The Satsuma students in Britain :

xvi, 201 pages, 6 unnumbered pages of plates : illustrations, maps ; 24 cm.

Abstract: "In the spring of 1865, with Japan in the grip of internal conflict, eighteen samurai and an interpreter risked their lives to embark secretly on a voyage to the unknown lands of the barbarian West. Their destination was Britain - an island at the hub of a vast empire." "These were the students from the province of Satsuma in southern Japan, some of them still in the teens, all carrying orders from their domain to travel abroad." "The students' experience of life in the West not only transformed their perception of the outside world, but through their diverse activities in later life, had a profound impact on commerce, education and culture in Meiji Japan." "First published in 1974, Inuzuka Takaaki's original study is still the classic work on the Satsuma students' revealing tale of discovery. In this translation and adaptation by Andrew Cobbing, further details that have since emerged have been incorporated into the text or added as supplementary references to give a fresh portrayal, the first in English, of this singular episode in the opening of Japan."--BOOK JACKET.

Early Irish kingship and succession /

Abstract: "On the basis of a wide range of written sources (laws, sagas, poetry, annals, genealogy, hagiography), Early Irish Kingship and Succession provides new insights about the place of lords and kings in early Irish society. It analyses the relationship with their subjects, by which means they ruled, and their strategies of survival in a competitive society. This is set in a context of the early Irish idealogy of rulership which combined Celtic ideas about sacral kingship with Christian concepts about proper behaviour and heavenly punishment. A lord or king had to be qualified for his office. Considerations such as descent, seniority, dignity, wealth, supporters and physical and mental capacities were all taken into account when a new lord or king was chosen. This study re-evaluates the rule of succession, its origins and its expression in narrative literature, and examines the meaning of the kingship of Tara and the titles rigdamna and tanaise rig. It sketches the background of the medieval Irish polity, with its expanding and fragmenting dynasties, and explains why none ever gained permanent rule over the whole island."--Jacket.
