The Reality of Global Crises: Why good beginnings are ending badly and leaving world-leaders increasingly powerless
ISBN: 9781470115425 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 504 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. What is going on? Consider the last few years: The global financial system was brought to its knees; the creditworthiness of the world's remaining superpower was downgraded; crises within the Eurozone escalated to threaten the entire world economy; many Arab countries became increasingly unstable, and for a few days arsonists and looters took control of British city streets; concealed abuses by Roman Catholic priests shook faith in some parts of the Establishment; concealed abuses by tabloid journalists, politicians and the police shook faith in much of the rest; meanwhile, governments around...

American War Machine: Deep Politics, the CIA Global Drug Connection, and the Road to Afghanistan
ISBN: 9780742555945 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 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,...

The Road to 9/11: Wealth, Empire, and the Future of America
ISBN: 9780520258716 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This is an ambitious, meticulous examination of how U.S. foreign policy since the 1960s has led to partial or total cover-ups of past domestic criminal acts, including, perhaps, the catastrophe of 9/11. Peter Dale Scott, whose previous books have investigated CIA involvement in southeast Asia, the drug wars, and the Kennedy assassination, here probes how the policies of presidents since Nixon have augmented the tangled bases for the 2001 terrorist attack. Scott shows how America's expansion into the world since World War II has led to momentous secret decision making at high levels. He...

Cocaine Politics: Drugs, Armies, and the CIA in Central America, Updated Edition
ISBN: 9780520214491 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. When the San Jose Mercury News ran a controversial series of stories in 1996 on the relationship between the CIA, the Contras, and crack, they reignited the issue of the intelligence agency's connections to drug trafficking, initially brought to light during the Vietnam War and then again by the Iran-Contra affair. Broad in scope and extensively documented, Cocaine Politics shows that under the cover of national security and covert operations, the U.S. government has repeatedly collaborated with and protected major international drug traffickers. A new preface discusses...

Mosaic Orpheus
ISBN: 9780773535060 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 182 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 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...

Drugs, Oil, and War: The United States in Afghanistan, Colombia, and Indochina
ISBN: 9780742525221 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Peter Dale Scott's brilliantly researched tour de force illuminates the underlying forces that drive U.S. global policy from Vietnam to Colombia and now to Afghanistan and Iraq. 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...

The American Deep State: Big Money, Big Oil, and the Struggle for U.S. Democracy
ISBN: 9781442214255 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 354 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Now in a new edition updated through the unprecedented 2016 presidential election, this provocative book makes a compelling case for a hidden -deep state- that influences and often opposes official U.S. policies. Prominent political analyst Peter Dale Scott begins by tracing America's increasing militarization, restrictions on constitutional rights, and income disparity since World War II. With the start of the Cold War, he argues, the U.S. government changed immensely in both function and scope, from protecting and nurturing a relatively isolated country to assuming ever-greater...

Hebrews: 5 Warnings for Believers (Nepali)
ISBN: 9781548374716 / Nepali / Miękka / 2017 / 38 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The warnings in the book of Hebrews serve as a wake up call to God's children. He has justified individuals and seeks to conform them to the image of His victorious Son. "Great Salvation" awaits those who persevere and finish their course. Great loss awaits those who fail to persevere-loss of reward and honor in Christ's coming millennial kingdom. Judgment awaits every born again individual at the judgment seat of Christ. God so wants every believer to hear the words "well done;" therefore, He moved the author of Hebrews to structure his argument around five warnings. This is a great display...
