ISBN: 9780520258716 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

American War Machine: Deep Politics, the CIA Global Drug Connection, and the Road to Afghanistan
ISBN: 9780742555952 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 408 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This provocative, thoroughly researched book explores the covert aspects of U.S. foreign policy. Prominent political analyst Peter Dale Scott marshals compelling evidence to expose the extensive growth of sanctioned but illicit violence in politics and state affairs, especially when related to America's long-standing involvement with the global drug traffic. Beginning with Thailand in the 1950s, Americans have become inured to the CIA's alliances with drug traffickers (and their bankers) to install and sustain right-wing governments. The pattern has repeated itself in Laos, Vietnam, Italy,...

He brings to light the intertwined patterns of drugs, oil politics, and intelligence networks that have been so central to the larger workings of U.S. intervention and escalation in Third World countries through alliances with drug-trafficking proxies. This strategy was originally developed in the late 1940s to contain communist China; it has since been used to secure control over foreign petroleum resources. The...

Mosaic Orpheus
ISBN: 9780773535060 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 182 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Working always to connect the polemical to the personal, Peter Dale Scott's political poems - from the tear gas of Berkeley protests in the 1960s to the problems of Thai forest monks in an era of drug-trafficking and deforestation - are a process of self-questioning. Self-questioning also marks his meditation poems, including a sequence on the death of his first wife. In opposition to contemporary poems of studied meaninglessness, Scott increasingly recognizes a compulsion in himself to radically reaffirm traditional rejections of the external world and turn to the refuges of poets before...
