Book Synopsis The Limits of Partnership by : Angela E. Stent
Download or read book The Limits of Partnership written by Angela E. Stent and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-01-05 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A gripping account of U.S.-Russian relations since the end of the Soviet Union The Limits of Partnership offers a riveting narrative on U.S.-Russian relations since the Soviet collapse and on the challenges ahead. It reflects the unique perspective of an insider who is also recognized as a leading expert on this troubled relationship. American presidents have repeatedly attempted to forge a strong and productive partnership only to be held hostage to the deep mistrust born of the Cold War. For the United States, Russia remains a priority because of its nuclear weapons arsenal, its strategic location bordering Europe and Asia, and its ability to support—or thwart—American interests. Why has it been so difficult to move the relationship forward? What are the prospects for doing so in the future? Is the effort doomed to fail again and again? Angela Stent served as an adviser on Russia under Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, and maintains close ties with key policymakers in both countries. Here, she argues that the same contentious issues—terrorism, missile defense, Iran, nuclear proliferation, Afghanistan, the former Soviet space, the greater Middle East—have been in every president's inbox, Democrat and Republican alike, since the collapse of the USSR. Stent vividly describes how Clinton and Bush sought inroads with Russia and staked much on their personal ties to Boris Yeltsin and Vladimir Putin—only to leave office with relations at a low point—and how Barack Obama managed to restore ties only to see them undermined by a Putin regime resentful of American dominance and determined to restore Russia's great power status. The Limits of Partnership calls for a fundamental reassessment of the principles and practices that drive U.S.-Russian relations, and offers a path forward to meet the urgent challenges facing both countries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this shocking book leading anti-communist Martin Dies reveals the revelations that he uncovered in his quest to rid American of socialism. “In the seven years during which I headed the Special Committee on Un-American Activities of the House of Representatives, the so-called Dies Committee, I heard a great deal of truth that is still not generally known to the American public. Whatever the reason may be for this ignorance, the time has come when the story that I know so well needs to be told. “Few are left who know the entire story, and fewer still who know it firsthand. Some lips have been sealed by death, others by fear, and some by possible economic sanctions, or for other reasons sufficient to themselves. This is a silence I have decided to break.” (Martin Dies)

Book Synopsis I Named My Dog Pushkin (And Other Immigrant Tales) by : Margarita Gokun Silver
Download or read book I Named My Dog Pushkin (And Other Immigrant Tales) written by Margarita Gokun Silver and published by Thread. This book was released on 2021-07-29 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Buy a pair of Levi’s, lose the Russian accent, become an American… how hard could it be? Moscow, 1988. After years of antisemitic harassment, countless hours waiting in line for toilet paper, and having zero access to cool jeans, Margarita decides it’s time to get the hell out of the Soviet Union. While dreaming of buying the boat-sized Buick she’d seen in a pirated VHS of Miami Vice and getting a taste of whatever it is Bruce Springsteen is singing about, she comes up with a plan to escape Mother Russia for good. When Margarita arrives in the US with her family, she has one objective – become fully American as soon as possible, and leave her Soviet past behind. But she soon learns that finding her new voice is harder than avoiding the KGB. Because, how do you become someone else completely? Is it as simple as changing your name, upgrading your wardrobe and working on your pronunciation of the word ‘sheet’? Can you let go of old habits (never, ever throw anything away), or learn to date without hang-ups (‘there is no sex in the Soviet Union’ after all)? Will you ever stop disappointing your parents, who expect you to become a doctor, a lawyer, an investment banker and a classical pianist – all at the same time? And can you still become the person you dreamed you’d be, while learning to embrace parts of yourself you’ve wanted to discard for good when you immigrated? Absolutely hilarious, painfully honest and sometimes heart-breaking, the award-winning I Named My Dog Pushkin will have fans of David Sedaris and Samantha Irby howling with laughter at Margarita’s failures, her victories and the life lessons she learns as she grows as both a woman and an immigrant, in a world that often doesn’t appreciate either. What readers are saying about I Named My Dog Pushkin: ‘Hilariously funny, whip-smart and absolutely fascinating… Silver shows that the only person she needs to ever become is herself. Just amazing.’ Caroline Leavitt, New York Times bestselling author of Pictures of You and With or Without You ‘Laugh-out-loud funny... a particular pleasure to see our splintered country through the eyes of this determined and appreciative emigree.’ NPR Books ‘An eye-opener… a whole other brand of Jewish humor… The book's wit, drama and erudition appear to me wholly miraculous. Margarita deserves a literary prize.’ Alicia Bay Laurel, New York Times bestselling author of Living on the Earth ‘Hysterically funny and thought-provoking… perfect for anyone fascinated with the USSR’ FangirlNation ‘I thoroughly enjoyed Margarita's witty and acerbic voice. This book was a delight!’ Jen Mann, New York Times bestselling author of People I Want to Punch in the Throat ‘Hilarious… From one USSR immigrant to another... I related a lot.’ Margarita Levieva, HBO's The Deuce ‘Hilarious and thought-provoking.’ California Bookwatch ‘A memoir like this is so very rare, one in which you learn a great deal, while laughing throughout. Highly, highly recommended.’ Wandering Educators ‘Plunges the reader into a world in which Coca-Cola is synonymous with freedom… riveting… moving… Gokun Silver is a gifted, witty writer.’ Los Angeles Review of Books ‘Sure to delight while tugging at your heartstrings.’ Jewish Book Council ‘Had me laughing and smiling all the way through… a perfect balance of wit and seriousness… Superb.’ Goodreads reviewer ‘Laughed my socks off!’ Goodreads reviewer ‘I loved this book so much… I just could not stop reading.’ NetGalley reviewer ‘A sharp, witty memoir… Margarita captured Jewish joy and grief together perfectly.’ Goodreads reviewer ‘Darkly funny… reminiscent of other acerbic comedian authors like Sara Barron… fascinating.’ NetGalley reviewer
