Book Synopsis Geopolitics, Geography and Strategy by : Colin S. Gray
Download or read book Geopolitics, Geography and Strategy written by Colin S. Gray and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-14 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geopolitical conditions influence all strategic behaviour - even when cooperation among different kinds of military power is expected as the norm, action has to be planned and executed in specific physical environments. The geographical world cannot be avoided, and it happens to be 'organized' into land, sea, air and space - and possibly the electromagnetic spectrum including 'cyberspace'. Although the meaning of geography for strategy is a perpetual historical theme, explicit theory on the subject is only one hundred years old. Ideas about the implication of geographical, especially spatial, relationships for political power - which is to say 'geopolitics'- flourished early in the twentieth century. Divided into theory and practice sections, this volume covers the big names such as Mackinder, Mahan and Haushofer, as well as looking back at the vital influence of weather and geography on naval power in the long age of sail (sixteenth to nineteenth centuries). It also looks forward to the consequences of the revival of geopolitics in post-Soviet Russia and the new space-based field of "astropolitics".

Book Synopsis Géographie militaire et géostratégie. 2e édition by : Philippe Boulanger
Download or read book Géographie militaire et géostratégie. 2e édition written by Philippe Boulanger and published by Armand Colin. This book was released on 2015-04-15 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sous l’effet de la mondialisation et de l’accélération des échanges, une nouvelle géographie des rivalités et des tensions s’est dessinée depuis la fin de l’antagonisme des blocs. Les conflits, moins nombreux, sont désormais d’une tout autre nature (terrorisme international, tensions pour la maîtrise des ressources énergétiques, prolifération nucléaire...) et bouleversent profondément l’équilibre sécuritaire et militaire mondial. Pour mesurer l’ampleur de ces mutations, cet ouvrage présente un état des lieux et une analyse claire des grandes dynamiques actuelles : croissance des dépenses militaires mondiales, développement de l’intelligence économique comme arme stratégique ; limites de l’hyperpuissance américaine, reconstruction de puissances militaires vieillissantes (Russie), émergence de nouveaux acteurs stratégiques (Chine, Inde) et de nouvelles formes de menaces (terrorisme à revendication étatique, cyberguerres, armes de destruction massive), multiplication de zones de tension et de chaos échappant à tout contrôle international... Appuyée sur les données chiffrées les plus récentes, cette édition entièrement revue et augmentée offre une grille de lecture indispensable pour comprendre le nouvel ordre mondial, dans un environnement géostratégique toujours plus complexe.

Download or read book Géographie militaire et géostratégie written by Philippe Boulanger and published by Armand Colin. This book was released on 2011 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depuis la fin de l’antagonisme des deux blocs et l’espoir de voir la paix s’imposer sur tous les continents, sous l’effet de la mondialisation et de l’accélération des échanges, une nouvelle géographie des rivalités et des tensions se dessine. Terrorisme international, guerres de frontières, conflits pour la maîtrise des ressources énergétiques sont autant de crises qui bouleversent l’équilibre sécuritaire et militaire hérité de la période post-guerre froide. Pour comprendre ces mutations et la complexité de ce nouvel ordre géostratégique, cet ouvrage dresse un état des lieux des grandes dynamiques contemporaines : croissance des dépenses militaires mondiales et développement de l’intelligence économique comme arme stratégique ; limites de l’hyperpuissance américaine et reconstruction de puissances militaires vieillissantes (Russie) ; émergence de nouveaux acteurs stratégiques (Chine, Inde). Car si les conflits tendent à diminuer, leur nature change et des zones de tension et de chaos (« zones grises »), échappant à tout contrôle, font leur apparition. Si les organisations internationales interviennent désormais davantage dans des opérations de consolidation de la paix et de reconstruction, elles doivent aujourd’hui faire face à de nouveaux défi s (terrorisme, prolifération des armes nucléaires) et enjeux actuels (préservation de l’environnement en temps de guerre). Philippe BOULANGER, professeur des universités en géographie, spécialiste des questions de défense et de géographie militaire, est professeur associé aux Écoles militaires de Saint-Cyr-Coëtquidan et à l’École de guerre de Paris.
Book Synopsis Research Methods in Defence Studies by : Delphine Deschaux-Dutard
Download or read book Research Methods in Defence Studies written by Delphine Deschaux-Dutard and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-08-09 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook provides an overview of qualitive and quantitative methods used in different social sciences to investigate defence issues. Recently, defence issues have become of increasing interest to researchers in the social sciences, but they raise specific methodological questions. This volume intends to fill a gap in the literature on defence studies by addressing a number of topics not dealt with sufficiently before. The contributors offer a range of methodological reflections and tools from various social sciences (political science, sociology, geography, history, economics and public law) for researching defence issues. They also address the increasingly important question of data and digitalization. The book introduces the added value of quantitative and qualitative methods, and calls for a cross-fertilization of methods in order to facilitate better research on defence topics and to fully grasp the complexity of defence in the 21st century. This book will be of much interest to students, researchers and practitioners of defence studies, war studies, military studies, and social science research methods in general.

Book Synopsis Making Strategies in Spatial Planning by : Maria Cerreta
Download or read book Making Strategies in Spatial Planning written by Maria Cerreta and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-09-11 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This provocative collection of essays challenges traditional ideas of strategic s- tial planning and opens up new avenues of analysis and research. The diversity of contributions here suggests that we need to rethink spatial planning in several f- reaching ways. Let me suggest several avenues of such rethinking that can have both theoretical and practical consequences. First, we need to overcome simplistic bifurcations or dichotomies of assessing outcomes and processes separately from one another. To lapse into the nostalgia of imagining that outcome analysis can exhaust strategic planners’ work might appeal to academics content to study ‘what should be’, but it will doom itself to further irrelevance, ignorance of politics, and rationalistic, technocratic fantasies. But to lapse into an optimism that ‘good process’ is all that strategic planning requires, similarly, rests upon a ction that no credible planning analyst believes: that enough talk will miraculously transcend con ict and produce agreement. Neither sing- minded approach can work, for both avoid dealing with con ict and power, and both too easily avoid dealing with the messiness and the practicalities of negotiating out con icting interests and values – and doing so in ethically and politically critical ways, far from resting content with mere ‘compromise’. Second, we must rethink the sanctity of expertise. By considering analyses of planning outcomes as inseparable from planning processes, these accounts help us to see expertise and substantive analysis as being ‘on tap’, ready to put into use, rather than being particularly and technocratically ‘on top’.

Book Synopsis The Art of War in World History by : Gérard Chaliand
Download or read book The Art of War in World History written by Gérard Chaliand and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1994-10-07 with total page 1126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This engrossing anthology gathers together a remarkable collection of writings on the use of strategy in war. Gérard Chaliand has ranged over the whole of human history in assembling this collection—the result is an integration of the annals of military thought that provides a learned framework for understanding global political history. Included are writings from ancient and modern Europe, China, Byzantium, the Arab world, Persia, and the Ottoman Empire. Alongside well-known militarists such as Julius Caesar, Napoleon, Walter Raleigh, Rommel, and many others are "irregulars" such as Cortés, Lawrence of Arabia, and even Gandhi. Contrary to standard interpretations stressing competition between land and sea powers, or among rival Christian societies, Chaliand shows the great importance of the struggles between nomadic and sedentary peoples, and of the conflicts between Christianity and Islam. With the invention of firepower, a relatively recent occurrence in the history of warfare, modes of organization and strategic concepts—elements reflecting the nature of a society—have been key to how war is waged. Unparalleled in its breadth, this anthology will become the standard work for understanding a fundamental part of human history—the conduct of war. "This anthology is not only an unparalleled corpus of information and an aid to failing memory; it is also and above all a reliable and liberating guide for research. . . . Ranging "from the origins to the nuclear age," it compels us to widen our narrow perspectives on conflicts and strategic action and open ourselves up to the universal."—from the Foreword
