ISBN: 9781689862295
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 114
Book Description
Great Game to 9/11 was initially begun as an introduction for a larger work on U.S./coalition involvement in Afghanistan. It provides essential information for an understanding of how this isolated country has, over centuries, become a battleground for world powers. Although an overview, this study draws on primary source material to present a detailed examination of U.S.-Afghan relations prior to Operation Enduring Freedom.The Engaging the World series focuses on U.S. involvement around the globe, primarily in the post-Cold War period. It includespeacekeeping and humanitarian missions as well as Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom-all missions inwhich the U.S. Air Force has been integrally involved. It will also document developments within the Air Force and the Department of Defense.
Access to the Sea for Developing Land-Locked States
Author: Martin GlassnerPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401511764
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 389
Book Description
This study is an outgrowth of an interest in the question of access to the sea developed by the author during a ten-month sojourn during 1962 and 1963 as American Vice Consul in Antofagasta, Chile. During this period he had the opportunity to visit Peru three times and Bolivia twice. This experience, supplemented by research in many libraries in New York, Washington and California and by interviews, documents and other reference materials, resulted in a detailed study of Bolivia's campaign for an outlet to the sea. 1 The present study has drawn some material from the earlier one, but is such an elaborate expansion of it that it might well be considered a wholly new effort. The effort was made because the problem of access to the sea has become more critical since the Second World War as the emphasis on trade and economic development has grown while at the same time many new land-locked states were being born. There have, moreover, been more threatened and actual interferences with free transit during this period than during the preceding half century and more. A thorough examination of the subject seemed in order, then, as an aid to an understanding of the problems involved and as a guide to future attempts to resolve them. In addition to a general survey of the question, three case studies have been included both as illustrations of many of these problems and as specific situations by which to test proposed solutions.
Frontier Encounters
Author: Franck BilléPublisher: Open Book Publishers
ISBN: 1906924872
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 294
Book Description
China and Russia are rising economic and political powers that share thousands of miles of border. Despite their proximity, their interactions with each other - and with their third neighbour Mongolia - are rarely discussed. Although the three countries share a boundary, their traditions, languages and worldviews are remarkably different. Frontier Encounters presents a wide range of views on how the borders between these unique countries are enacted, produced, and crossed. It sheds light on global uncertainties: China's search for energy resources and the employment of its huge population, Russia's fear of Chinese migration, and the precarious independence of Mongolia as its neighbours negotiate to extract its plentiful resources. Bringing together anthropologists, sociologists and economists, this timely collection of essays offers new perspectives on an area that is currently of enormous economic, strategic and geo-political relevance.

The New Central Asia
Author: Emilian KavalskiPublisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9814287563
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 365
Book Description
This book focuses on Central Asia's place in world affairs and how international politics of state-building has affected the Asian region, thus filling the gaps in ongoing discussions on the rise of Asia in global governance. It also attempts to generalize and contextualize the "Central Asian experience" and re-evaluate its comparative relevance, by explaining the complex dynamics of Central Asian politics through a detailed analysis of the effects of major international actors -- both international organizations as well as current and rising great powers.--Publisher's description.
