The Foreign Policies of the French Left
ISBN: 9780367292225 / Angielski / Twarda / 124 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The essays included in this volume were written for a series of seminars which took place at the Washington Center of Foreign Policy Research of the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies.

ISBN: 9780367282509 / Angielski / Twarda / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "The notion that every state has an interest in the territorial integrity of every other state-no matter how distant they are and how slight their connections-is peculiar to the twentieth century. To be sure, poets and philosophers had perceived humanity's common interest in preventing wars, and statesmen had found that aggression from outside the community could be deterred by the mutual defense of those within it. But no one had ever tried to organize an all-embracing system that used the collective force of its members to prevent one of them from attacking another.
It took the wide... "The notion that every state has an interest in the territorial integrity of every other state-no matter how distant they are and how slight their con...

Divided between two military alliances, Europe has maintained stability based on political status quo and military power balance.

ISBN: 9780367292676 / Angielski / Twarda / 263 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Robert Beck's study focuses principally on two related questions.

Beck concludes that international law did not determine policy, but that it...

ISBN: 9780367288341 / Angielski / Twarda / 197 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The study of Soviet attitudes towards the role of Congress in U.S. foreign policy concerns an area of Soviet foreign policy considerations that has received little attention by Western scholars and that offers valuable new insights for the study of Soviet foreign policy and U.S.-Soviet relations.

The United States and Saudi Arabia: Ambivalent Allies
ISBN: 9780367296971 / Angielski / Twarda / 161 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. U.S.-Saudi relations have been marked by ambivalence since their inception over 50 years ago. The Arab-Israeli conflict, the division between buyer and seller of oil, the superpower-small state dichotomy, and the divergence of cultures, traditions, and perceptions have all contributed to the anomalies that have marked the relationship between the two countries, although mutual interest has, over time, outweighed mutual antagonism. Dr. Long examines the major factors affecting their association—economic, commercial, military, and political as well as oil-related factors—and develops the...

The bitter U.S. experience in Vietnam and the pain inflicted on theSoviet Union by its Afghanistan adventure have caused Washington andMoscow to rethink the costs and benefits of unilateral military interventionon behalf of threatened clients, especially in the third world.

"As the number of peacekeeping efforts conducted internationally under the aegis of military forces increases, thers is more pressure to resolve the dilemma inherent in all peacekeeping activities-how to combine efficiency with legitimacy. This dilemma is particularly acute in the many conflicts that have mushroomed in the Eurasian region following the disintegration of the Soviet state. Given the history of Soviet Russian repression of ethnicnational entities, can Russia-the USSR's primary heir-be relied on to resolve rather than inflame conflicts in the other post-Soviet states and regions?...

ISBN: 9780367013516 / Angielski / Twarda / 258 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The chapters in this book were written by me or solicited from renowned experts to produce a work that anticipated an imminent post- Khomeini period in Iranian history.

The book you are about to read took some time to put together. Based on extensive research, the project was undertaken in early 1988 and ended about the spring of 1990. A sincere debt of gratitude is naturally owed to all of my...
