Book Synopsis The United States of War by : David Vine
Download or read book The United States of War written by David Vine and published by University of California Press. This book was released on 2020-10-13 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States has been fighting wars constantly since invading Afghanistan in 2001. This nonstop warfare is far less exceptional than it might seem: the United States has been at war or has invaded other countries almost every year since independence. In The United States of War, David Vine traces this pattern of bloody conflict from Columbus’s 1494 arrival in Guantanamo Bay through the 250-year expansion of a global US empire. Drawing on historical and firsthand anthropological research in fourteen countries and territories, The United States of War demonstrates how US leaders across generations have locked the United States in a self-perpetuating system of permanent war by constructing the world’s largest-ever collection of foreign military bases—a global matrix that has made offensive interventionist wars more likely. Beyond exposing the profit-making desires, political interests, racism, and toxic masculinity underlying the country’s relationship to war and empire, The United States of War shows how the long history of U.S. military expansion shapes our daily lives, from today’s multi-trillion–dollar wars to the pervasiveness of violence and militarism in everyday U.S. life. The book concludes by confronting the catastrophic toll of American wars—which have left millions dead, wounded, and displaced—while offering proposals for how we can end the fighting.

Book Synopsis America's Use of Terror by : Stephen Huggins
Download or read book America's Use of Terror written by Stephen Huggins and published by University Press of Kansas. This book was released on 2019-11-07 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the first, America has considered itself a “shining city on a hill”—uniquely lighting the right way for the world. But it is hard to reconcile this picture, the very image of American exceptionalism, with what America’s Use of Terror shows us: that the United States has frequently resorted to acts of terror to solve its most challenging problems. Any “war on terror,” Stephen Huggins suggests, will fail unless we take a long, hard look at ourselves—and it is this discerning, informed perspective that his book provides. Terrorism, as Huggins defines it, is an act of violence against noncombatants intended to change their political will or support. The United States government adds a qualifier to this definition: only if the instigator is a “subnational group.” On the contrary, Huggins tells us, terrorism is indeed used by the state—a politically organized body of people occupying a definite territory—in this case, the government of the United States, as well as by such predecessors as the Continental Congress and early European colonists in America. In this light, America’s Use of Terror re-examines key historical moments and processes, many of them events praised in American history but actually acts of terror directed at noncombatants. The targeting of women and children in Native American villages, for instance, was a use of terror, as were the means used to sustain slavery and then to further subjugate freed slaves under Jim Crow laws and practices. The placing of Philippine peasants in concentration camps during the Philippine-American War; the firebombing of families in Dresden and Tokyo; the dropping of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki—all are last resort measures to conclude wars, and these too are among the instances of American terrorism that Huggins explores. Terrorism, in short, is not only terrorism when they do it to us, as many Americans like to think. And only when we recognize this, and thus the dissonance between the ideal and the real America, will we be able to truly understand and confront modern terrorism.

Book Synopsis Genocide, War, and Human Survival by : Charles B. Strozier
Download or read book Genocide, War, and Human Survival written by Charles B. Strozier and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 1996 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the tragic workings of the Holocaust and Hiroshima to contemporary examples of genocide in Bosnia and Rwanda, this provocative collection of original essays examines the enduring impact of cataclysmic events on the modern human psyche. Inspired by the career of Robert Jay Lifton, the distinguished contributors use a wide range of disciplinary and methodological approaches to probe society, culture, and politics in the nuclear age and they explore the therapeutic value of artistic expression to witnesses and survivors of mass violence. The essays convey a message of hope by displaying the remarkable diversity of human responses to extreme adversity and by concluding that intellectuals and professionals have an abiding obligation to act responsibly in a world of violence and to provide healing images of transformation.

Download or read book After War written by Zoë H. Wool and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2015-11-04 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In After War Zoë H. Wool explores how the American soldiers most severely injured in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars struggle to build some kind of ordinary life while recovering at Walter Reed Army Medical Center from grievous injuries like lost limbs and traumatic brain injury. Between 2007 and 2008, Wool spent time with many of these mostly male soldiers and their families and loved ones in an effort to understand what it's like to be blown up and then pulled toward an ideal and ordinary civilian life in a place where the possibilities of such a life are called into question. Contextualizing these soldiers within a broader political and moral framework, Wool considers the soldier body as a historically, politically, and morally laden national icon of normative masculinity. She shows how injury, disability, and the reality of soldiers' experiences and lives unsettle this icon and disrupt the all-too-common narrative of the heroic wounded veteran as the embodiment of patriotic self-sacrifice. For these soldiers, the uncanny ordinariness of seemingly extraordinary everyday circumstances and practices at Walter Reed create a reality that will never be normal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Militarization: A Reader offers a range of critical perspectives on the dynamics of militarization as a social, economic, political, cultural, and environmental phenomenon.

Download or read book Final Warning written by Gabriel Michaels and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-04-06 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his second book about the coming horrendous WWIII nuclear fire war, Final Warning: WWIII Part Two, Gabriel Michaels deals with several end-time subjects. Among these are the rise of the Antichrist and the false prophet; the extensive preparations for WWIII that are being done by the United States, NATO, Russia, and Russia’s prophetic allies; and the end-time signs in the heavens. He also examines the question that everyone wants to know concerning the timing of Jesus’s return—when? I think you will be surprised by what God has shown him about this and how close we actually may be to WWIII and Jesus’s return at the Rapture. In easy-to-understand language, Gabriel Michaels shows that time is running out for man’s rule of earth. He shows how and why Jesus truly is coming to earth soon to set up his kingdom of one thousand years. If you have already read WWIII Part One, then, once you read this book, many of your questions concerning the end-times may well be answered. For the sake of you, your family, and your friends, you should know these things. We are quickly moving to a great climax in world history. This could quite literally be the final warning that many will hear. The sunset of man’s rule over Earth, his final generation to rule Earth, began May 14, 1948, when Israel became a nation. The sunrise of the rule of Earth by Jesus Christ, King of kings, is upon us and very few understand that. The prophet Daniel was told in Daniel 12:9 (NIV), “Go your way, Daniel, for the words are closed up and sealed until the time of the end.” The words of end-time prophecy are being unsealed in this book in a way you have probably never heard before. You can be one of those in the end-times, who would be among the wise, as the prophet was told in Daniel 12:10 (NIV), “None of the wicked will understand, but those who are wise will understand.” Author Gabriel Michaels has studied for over fifty years to bring this word of warning to you, to help you understand the lateness of the hour in which you live. This is a warning done out of love. Please listen, before it’s too late! King Jesus is coming. Get ready for the return of the King!
