Imagining Nuclear War in the British Army, 1945-1989
ISBN: 9780198846994 / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22-25 dni roboczych. The primary mission assigned to the British Army from the 1950s until the end of the Cold War was deterring Soviet aggression in Europe by demonstrating the will and capability to fight with nuclear weapons in defence of NATO territory. This 'surreal' mission was unlike any other in history, and raised a number of conceptual and practical difficulties. This comprehensive study observes how the British Army imagined nuclear war, and how it planned to fight it. Using new archival sources, Simon J. Moody analyses British thinking about tactical nuclear weapons, the role of the Army within NATO...

Modern Brazil: A Very Short Introduction
ISBN: 9780198812081 / Miękka / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-20 dni roboczych. Brazil is associated in many people's minds with conviviality, sensuality, and natural beauty. Yet the country behind these images and associations is something of an enigma. It is alternately praised as the <"country of the future>", a rising power ready to take its place at the top tables of global governance, or written off as a perennial disappointment, a country forever failing to reach its potential, mired in corruption, inequality, poverty, and violence. These oscillations between euphoria and despair obscure a country with its own unique trajectory through the 20th and 21st...

Paramilitarism: Mass Violence in the Shadow of the State
ISBN: 9780198825241 / Twarda / 223 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22-25 dni roboczych. From the deserts of Sudan to the jungles of Colombia, and from the streets of Belfast to the mountains of Kurdistan, paramilitaries have appeared in violent conflicts in very different settings. Paramilitaries are generally depicted as irregular armed organizations that carry out acts of violence against civilians on behalf of a state. In doing so, they undermine the state's monopoly of legitimate violence, while at the same time creating a breeding ground for criminal activities. Why do governments with functioning police forces and armies use paramilitary groups? This study tackles this...

Snapshot Stories : Visuality, Photography, and the Social History of Ireland, 1922-2000
ISBN: 9780198823032 / Twarda / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22-25 dni roboczych. During the twentieth century, men and women across Ireland picked up cameras, photographing days out at the beach, composing views of Ireland's cities and countryside, and recording political events as they witnessed them. Indeed, while foreign photographers often still focused on the image of Ireland as bucolic rural landscape, Irish photographers-snapshotter and professional alike-were creating and curating photographs which revealed more complex and diverse images of Ireland. Snapshot Stories explores these stories. Erika Hanna examines a diverse array of photographic sources, including...
