Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report consists of three unfinished chapters of a book the author was writing at the time of his death in 1977. The discrepancies between reality and belief in military affairs which have had decisive consequences on events throughout man's recorded history--although often observed and commented upon by military analysts and historians--are here for the first time made the focus of inquiry. Drawing on past and present writings of East and West to illustrate his points, the author discusses the factors and circumstances that influence the assessment process, and the role of manipulation and deception in shaping images of the enemy and the self in military affairs. Primary attention is given to the peacetime or pre-war cases that illuminate the relation between military realities and military beliefs.

Book Synopsis Reality and Belief of Indian Military Affairs by : K. K. Singh

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India does not admit easily to broad generalizations. It is an extraordinarily complex and diverse society and Indian elites show little evidence of having thought coherently and systematically about national strategy, although this situation may now be changing. Despite India`s cultural greatness and longevity as a civilization, Indian history is often dimly perceived and poorly recorded; given an oral tradition in imparting past events and the destruction of most records, much of this history is difficult to verify. Until the middle of the eighteenth century, Indians knew little of their national history and seemed uninterested in it. Four principal factors help to explain Indian actions and views about power and security: Indian geography; the discovery of Indian history by Indian elites over the past 150 years; Indian cultural and social structures and belief systems: and the British rule. Geography has imparted a view of the Indian subcontinent as a single strategic entity, with various topographical features contributing to an insular perspective and a tradition of localism and particularism. India`s unique culture reinforced this unity and imparted, first, a tendency toward diversity and accommodation to existing realities and, second, a highly developed capacity to absorb dissimilar concepts and theories. This tolerance was strengthened by the caste system, which also helped maintain an extraordinarily durable system and ethic for social relations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The danger faced by humanity from nuclear weapons is our most urgent diplomatic challenge. It calls for as broad an array of responses as possible to enhance the prospects of success. This book provides an alternative to war or containment in dealing with the seemingly intractable problem of nuclear threat. The Islamic Republic of Iran seems determined - despite legal commitments to the contrary - to develop nuclear weapons along with the missiles needed to deliver them. If Iran acquires nuclear weapons it will feel even more confident than it does today to continue its policy of supporting surrogate and terrorist attacks on the US, our allies, and our interests. A nuclear-armed Iran will set off a race for nuclear weapons by Sunni states that regard Shia Iran as a threat even now. And it will fuel the fear Iran's leaders have generated that such weapons would be used to wipe Israel off the map.

Book Synopsis The Chinese Armed Forces in the 21st Century by :
Download or read book The Chinese Armed Forces in the 21st Century written by and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 1999 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The debate about China and Taiwan is re-emerging in the United States. The accidental bombing of the Chinese Embassy in Belgrade, of course, put on the front burner the way that nationalistic fervor has grown in China, at least some of it as a result of manipulation by the Communist Party. President Lee Teng-hui's comments about state-to-state relations between Taiwan and the mainland raised the temperature of relations across the strait and among the three concerned parties (China, the United States, and Taiwan). China threatened, China postured, and China ran political campaigns against the United States and Lee. But the questions of military capability, security policy, and intent are rarely treated seriously. This book is a serious look at the armed forces of China and how they will evolve.

Book Synopsis The Weary Titan by : Aaron L. Friedberg
Download or read book The Weary Titan written by Aaron L. Friedberg and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do statesmen become aware of unfavorable shifts in relative power, and how do they seek to respond to them? These are puzzles of considerable importance to theorists of international relations. As national decline has become an increasingly prominent theme in American political debate, these questions have also taken on an immediate, pressing significance. The Weary Titan is a penetrating study of a similar controversy in Britain at the turn of the twentieth century. Drawing on a wide variety of sources, Aaron Friedberg explains how England's rulers failed to understand and respond to the initial evidence of erosion in their country's industrial, financial, naval, and military power. The British example suggests that statesmen may be slow to recognize shifts in international position, in part because they rely heavily on simple but often distorting indicators of relative capabilities. In a new afterword, Friedberg examines current debates about whether America is in decline, arguing that American power will remain robust for some time to come.
