America's Inadvertent Empire
ISBN: 9780300107715 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The United States finds itself at the center of a historically unparalleled empire, one that is wealth-generating and voluntary rather than imperialistic, say the authors of this compelling book. William E. Odom and Robert Dujarric examine America's unprecedented power within the international arenas of politics, economics, demographics, education, science, and culture. They argue persuasively that the major threat to this unique empire is ineffective U.S. leadership, not a rising rival power center. America cannot simply behave as an ordinary sovereign state, Odom and Dujarric contend. They...

The Soviet Volunteers: Modernization and Bureaucracy in Public Mass Organization
ISBN: 9780691645780 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 378 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Founded in 1927, the Society of Friends of Defense and Aviation- Chemical Construction, or "Osoaviakhim," became the largest mass voluntary association in the Soviet Union before World War II. Conceived in Bolshevik rhetoric about the creativity of the toiling masses, this novel organizational scheme gradually acquired bureaucratic substance and played a significant role in making the civilian masses administratively accessible for elementary programs in military training and chemical and aviation technology. William E. Odom's study of Osoaviakhim in its first decade seeks not only...

On Internal War: American and Soviet Approaches to Third World Clients and Insurgents
ISBN: 9780822311829 / Angielski / Twarda / 1991 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. William E. Odom combines expertise in political science and military affairs to challenge both conventional and unconventional wisdom about insurgencies and political development. The author concludes that in all three components of U.S. strategy for counterinsurgency--political, economic, and military--faulty notions of causation inform policy. U.S. advice to embattled governments fails to recognize the inherent clash of development goals; direct fiscal aid hurts more often than it helps recipient governments; and the focus of U.S. military assistance on fighting insurgents plays to their...

The Collapse of the Soviet Military
ISBN: 9780300082715 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 538 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. One of the great surprises in modern military history is the collapse of the Soviet Armed Forces in 1991--along with the party-state with which it was inextricably intertwined. In this important book, a distinguished United States Army officer and scholar traces the rise and fall of the Soviet military, arguing that it had a far greater impact on Soviet politics and economic development than was perceived in the West. General William E. Odom asserts that Gorbachev saw that dramatically shrinking the military and the military-industrial sector of the economy was essential for fully...

After the Trenches
ISBN: 9781603440813 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. At the end of the Great War, the U.S. Army faced the challenge of integrating what it had learned in the failures and ultimate success of its war effort. During the interwar years the army sought to balance readiness and modernization in a period of limited resources and technological advances with profound implications for the conduct of warfare. In After the Trenches, William O. Odom traces the development of combat doctrine between the world wars through an examination of the army's primary doctrine manuals, the Field Service Regulations. The Field Service Regulations of 1923 successfully...
