Book Synopsis La Chine et le règlement du premier conflit d'Indochine by : François Joyaux
Download or read book La Chine et le règlement du premier conflit d'Indochine written by François Joyaux and published by FeniXX. This book was released on 1979-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Chine et le règlement du premier conflit d’Indochine, Genève 1954, reconstitue et analyse avec minutie l’attitude de la République populaire de Chine lors du règlement de la guerre d’Indochine. L’accent est plus particulièrement mis sur sa position à la conférence de Genève, en avril-juillet 1954. C’est le premier ouvrage de fond écrit en France sur la politique extérieure de la Chine actuelle. C’est aussi le premier à s’appuyer sur des sources d’archives qui ne sont pas encore publiques. Étude d’une tranche d’histoire contemporaine, ce livre situe également la politique extérieure de la Chine socialiste par rapport à celle de la Chine impériale et républicaine, montrant ainsi la remarquable continuité qui les unit. C’est dire que cet ouvrage demeurera indispensable non seulement pour connaître ce que fut la politique chinoise en Indochine à l’ère de la « guerre froide », mais aussi pour comprendre ce qu’elle demeure indépendamment des régimes et notamment saisir quels objectifs elle vise aujourd’hui.

Book Synopsis The Indochinese Experience of the French and the Americans by : Arthur J. Dommen
Download or read book The Indochinese Experience of the French and the Americans written by Arthur J. Dommen and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2002-02-20 with total page 1191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Dommen's book promises to be the definitive political history of Indochina during the Franco-American era." -- William M. Leary, E. Merton Coulter Professor of History, University of Georgia This magisterial study by Arthur J. Dommen sets the Indochina wars 'French and American' in perspective as no book that has come before. He summarizes the history of the peninsula from the Vietnamese War of Independence from China in 930-39 through the first French military actions in 1858, when the struggle of the peoples of Indochina with Western powers began. Dommen details the crucial episodes in the colonization of Indochina by the French and the indigenous reaction to it. The struggle for national sovereignty reached an acute state at the end of World War II, when independent governments rapidly assumed power in Vietnam and Cambodia. When the French returned, the struggle became one of open warfare, with Nationalists and Communists gripped in a contest for ascendancy in Vietnam, while the rulers of Cambodia and Laos sought to obtain independence by negotiation. The withdrawal of the French after their defeat at Dien Bien Phu brought the Indochinese face-to-face, whether as friends or as enemies, with the Americans. In spite of an armistice in 1954, the war between Hanoi and Saigon resumed as each enlisted the help of foreign allies, which led to the renewed loss of sovereignty as a result of alliances and an increasingly heavy loss of lives. Meticulous and detailed, Dommen's telling of this complicated story is always judicious. Nevertheless, many people will find his analysis of the Diem coup a disturbing account of American plotting and murder. This is an essential book for anyone who wants to understand Vietnam and the people who fought against the United States and won.
Book Synopsis The Geneva Conference of 1954 on Indochina by : J. Cable
Download or read book The Geneva Conference of 1954 on Indochina written by J. Cable and published by Springer. This book was released on 2000-06-29 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Geneva Agreements of 1954 were widely welcomed. They ended a seven-year war in Indochina; gave France a dignified exit; averted wider conflict. In later years first Americans and Vietnamese, then Russians, Chinese, Cambodians and even Laotians tried to force Indochina into different patterns of their own devising. These new wars triggered by rejection of the Geneva compromise lasted longer, killed more people, did greater damage and achieved less - for everybody. Perhaps Churchill was right: jaw-jaw is better than war-war. Certainly this lively, first-hand, up-dated account of the Geneva Conference of 1954 - that triumph of old-fashioned diplomacy, which Britain initiated and France completed - offers a better model for the twenty-first century to follow.

Book Synopsis The British and the Vietnam War by : Nicholas Tarling
Download or read book The British and the Vietnam War written by Nicholas Tarling and published by NUS Press. This book was released on 2017-01-20 with total page 463 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the presidency of Lyndon Johnson, the British government sought to avoid escalation of the war in Vietnam and to help bring about peace. The thinking that lay behind these endeavours was often insightful and it is hard to argue that the attempt was not worth making, but the British government was able to exert little, if any, influence on a power with which it believed it had, and needed, a special relationship. Drawing on little-used papers in the British archives, Nicholas Tarling describes the making of Britain’s Vietnam policy during a period when any compromise proposed by London was likely to be seen in Washington as suggestive of defeat, and attempts to involve Moscow in the process over-estimated the USSR’s influence on a Hanoi determined on reunification.
Book Synopsis Replacing France by : Kathryn Statler
Download or read book Replacing France written by Kathryn Statler and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2007-06-22 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using recently released archival materials from the United States and Europe, Replacing France: The Origins of American Intervention in Vietnam explains how and why the United States came to assume control as the dominant western power in Vietnam during the 1950s. Acting on their conviction that American methods had a better chance of building a stable, noncommunist South Vietnamese nation, Eisenhower administration officials systematically ejected French military, economic, political, bureaucratic, and cultural institutions from Vietnam. Kathryn C. Statler examines diplomatic maneuvers in Paris, Washington, London, and Saigon to detail how Western alliance members sought to transform South Vietnam into a modern, westernized, and democratic ally but ultimately failed to counter the Communist threat. Abetted by South Vietnamese prime minister Ngo Dinh Diem, Americans in Washington, D.C., and Saigon undermined their French counterparts at every turn, resulting in the disappearance of a French presence by the time Kennedy assumed office. Although the United States ultimately replaced France in South Vietnam, efforts to build South Vietnam into a nation failed. Instead, it became a dependent client state that was unable to withstand increasing Communist aggression from the North. Replacing France is a fundamental reassessment of the origins of U.S. involvement in Vietnam that explains how Franco-American conflict led the United States to pursue a unilateral and ultimately imperialist policy in Vietnam.
Download or read book The Cold War written by J.P.D. Dunbabin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-14 with total page 688 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cold War offers a brief but detailed treatment of one of the most complex eras of the 20th Century. In this fully revised second edition, J.P.D. Dunbabin, drawing on international scholarship and using much new material from communist sources, describes a world in which covert operations could be as important as outright diplomacy, 'soft' power as influential as 'hard', and in which competing ideologies ruled the hearts as much as the heads of the leaders in power. Dunbabin’s account is global in scope, taking into account the importance of players beyond the superpowers, and shedding light on the proxy conflicts such as those in Africa and the Middle East that, if not caused by the continuing stalemate between the great powers, were used as weapons within it.
Book Synopsis Collective Leadership and Factionalism by : Quang Trung Thai
Download or read book Collective Leadership and Factionalism written by Quang Trung Thai and published by Institute of Southeast Asian Studies. This book was released on 1985 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essay goes beyong the legend of Ho Chi Minh and his disciples. Behind the facade of unity, the Vietnamese communist leadership has for years been torn by a prolonged crisis, sustained by two major ideological factions and later amplified by the development of the Sino-Soviet rift. Ho Chi Minh was far from being a dictator the calibre of Tito, for example. Rather, his style of collective leadership has contributed to the institutionalization of factionalism in Hanoi. His policy of equidistance between Moscow and Beijing became more or less a necessity for the leadership's unity. This book addresses itself to the question: Did Ho Chi Minh leave behind a unified party? The book provides an understanding of one of the most enigmatic - and the most long-lasting - leaderships in the communist annals, and examines the current state of the Hanoi regime.

Download or read book Britain, Southeast Asia and the Impact of the Korean War written by Nicholas Tarling and published by NUS Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 556 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sequel to the author's Britain, Southeast Asia and the Onset of the Pacific War (Cambridge University Press, 1996) and Britain, Southeast Asia and the Onset of the Cold War (Cambridge University Press, 1998), this book discusses Britain's policy towards Southeast Asia in the period 1950-55, when it was crucially affected by the struggle in Korea. The phases in that struggle - briefly described and placed in a world context - provide a context for discussing Britain's relations with Burma, Thailand, Indonesia, and Indochina. Covering the dispute over West New Guinea and the Chinese Nationalist incursion into Burma, the book gives a full account of the Geneva conference 50 years ago, which reached a settlement in Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia, and of the creation of the SEATO alliance. The focus of the work is on British policy, and it is largely based on a study of British official records.
