Afghanistan and Its Neighbors After the NATO Withdrawal
ISBN: 9781498529143 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The planned reductions in NATO troop numbers in Afghanistan through 2015 and a final withdrawal at the end of 2016 brings up numerous pressing questions about the security and national interests of not just Afghanistan, but of the broader region itself. The problem of a chaotic Afghanistan--or of an outright Taliban victory--is of great concern to not only immediate neighbors such as Iran, Pakistan, and the former Soviet Central Asian republics to the north, but also to those countries in the region with Afghanistan-related security or economic concerns, such as China and India. Further...

ISBN: 9781780761220 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Afghanistan's history is a sad one: Soviet invasion in 1979; Pakistan-backed internal conflict in the 1980s; the Taliban regime and then the US invasion after the catastrophe of September 11th. Why does Afghanistan remain so vulnerable to domestic instability, foreign intervention and ideological extremism? Amin Saikal provides us with a sweeping new understanding of this troubled country that grounds Afghanistan's problems in rivalries stemming from a series of dynastic alliances within the successive royal families from the end of the eighteenth century to the pro-Communist coup of...

Nearly ten years of bloodshed and political turmoil have followed the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979.

The decision to withdraw combat forces under the provisions of the Geneva Accords of April 1988 is one of the most dramatic developments in the...

ISBN: 9781780763194 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The West Asian states of Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq and Iran have over the last few decades represented an arc of crisis. Characterized by fractured and dysfunctional political elites, fraught economic policies, and ideological struggles between the forces of authoritarianism and democratization, neo-fundamentalism and pluralism, they embody a mosaic of ethnicities.

Russia in Search of Its Future
ISBN: 9780521483872 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Russia's renewal since the collapse of communism has proved extraordinarily disturbed, marked by escalating conflict between President Yeltsin and the Congress of People's Deputies inherited from the Soviet era. This culminated in insurrection and violence on the streets, and when the main rebels were given amnesty in February 1994, the situation remained as uncertain as ever. The contributors to this book analyze a Russia that is searching for its future amid a maelstrom of complex forces--political, economic, sociocultural, and international. They examine each of these elements of Russia's...

The Rise and Fall of the Shah: Iran from Autocracy to Religious Rule
ISBN: 9780691140407 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. On November 4, 1979, when students occupied the American Embassy in Tehran and subsequently demanded that the United States return the Shah in exchange for hostages, the deposed Iranian ruler's regime became the focus of worldwide scrutiny and controversy. But, as Amin Saikal shows, this was far from the beginning of Iran's troubles. Saikal examines the rule of Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi, especially from 1953 to 1979, in the context of his regime's dependence on the United States and his dreams of transforming Iran into a world power. Saikal argues that, despite the Shah's early...

Weak States, Strong Societies: Power and Authority in the New World Order
ISBN: 9781784534806 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Since the disintegration of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War, the previously well-established organisation of world politics has been thrown into disarray. While during the Cold War, the bipolarity of the world gave other powers a defined structure within which to vie for power, influence and material wealth, the current global political landscape has been transformed by a diffusion of power. As a result, the world has seen the rise of sub-national or quasi-/non-state actors, such as Hezbollah, al-Qaeda and the movement that calls itself Islamic State, or ISIS. These dramatic...
