Beating Goliath: Why Insurgencies Win
ISBN: 9781597970914 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Beating Goliath examines the phenomenon of victories by the weak over the strong--more specifically, insurgencies that succeeded against great powers. Jeffrey Record reviews eleven insurgent wars from 1775 to the present and determines why the seemingly weaker side won. He concludes that external assistance correlates more consistently with insurgent success than any other explanation. He does not disparage the critical importance of will, strategy, and strong-side regime type or suggest that external assistance guarantees success. Indeed, in all cases, some combination of these...

In The Specter of Munich: Reconsidering the Lessons of Appeasing Hitler (Potomac Books, Inc., 2006), he contended that Hitler could not have been deterred from going to war by any action the Allies could plausibly have taken.

Wanting War: Why the Bush Administration Invaded Iraq
ISBN: 9781597974370 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 226 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Wanting War is the first comprehensive analysis of the often contradictory reasons why President George W. Bush went to war in Iraq and of the war's impact on future U.S. armed intervention abroad. Though the White House sold the war as a necessity to eliminate an alleged Iraqi threat, other agendas were at play. Drawing on new assessments of George W. Bush's presidency, recent memoirs by key administration decision makers, and Jeffrey Record's own expertise on U.S. military interventions since World War II, Wanting War contends that Bush's invasion of Iraq was more about the...

Making War, Thinking History: Munich, Vietnam, and Presidential Uses of Force from Korea to Kosovo
ISBN: 9781612515823 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In examining the influence of historical analogies on decisions to use--or not use--force, military strategist Jeffrey Record assesses every major application of U.S. force from the Korean War to the NATO war on Serbia. Specifically, he looks at the influence of two analogies: the democracies? appeasement of Hitler at Munich and America's defeat in the Vietnam War. His book judges the utility of these two analogies on presidential decision-making and finds considerable misuse of them in situations where force was optional. He points to the Johnson administration's application of the Munich...
