The New Order of War
ISBN: 9789042029415 / Angielski / Miękka / 258 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Far from heralding a time of unprecedented peace, the end of "actually existing communism" served to usher in new conflicts, new wars and new reasons for war. That much goes without saying. What is controversial, however, is how we might understand and respond to these new wars. This book offers a new approach. Its distinctive and multidisciplinary range of perspectives, offering quite different views, is based on the conviction that if we are to begin to get to grips with this central feature of our 21st Century lives, we have to go beyond an unhelpful moralism on the one hand and a...

ISBN: 9781452801049 / Angielski / Miękka / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Set in rural Iraq in 2008, a nameless narrator dictates several of many memories concerning his surreal and disorienting world in regards to his longing for home, the despair of loss, the brief moments of action and their effects.

It is instead is a faithful recitation of circumstances, none of which are beyond the realm of what is possible or even likely in this modern conflict which had been part of America for over seven years. Great care has been taken to convey the...
