Minori Takahashi, "The Influence of Sub-state Actors on National Security: Using Military Bases to Forge Autonomy"
English | 2019 | ISBN: 3030016765, 3030016781 | 153 pages | True PDF | 1.8 MB
This book sheds light on the process in which the sub-state actor of Greenland has expanded its autonomy and strengthened its de jure participation in the national security of Denmark. By focusing on the case of the US Thule Air Base in Greenland, the largest military base in the Arctic, the authors endeavor to show that in the relationship between great powers, small countries and local actors within them, it is possible for local actors (sub-national entities) to have an influence on higher-level actors in the field of diplomacy on the national security level. For that purpose, the book examines political trends involving Greenland, Denmark, the US and Russia by using the multilateral multi-archive approach. The authors also take up the cases of Okinawa (Japan) and Olongapo (the Philippines) as reference points that provide additional insight into the interaction between the US policy regarding overseas military bases and the host countries' polities.

The Gothic Line : Canada's month of hell in World War II Italy By Mark Zuehlke
2005 | 400 Pages | ISBN: 1553650239 | EPUB | 5 MB
Like an armor-toothed belt across Italy's upper thigh, the Gothic Line was the most fortified and fiercely defended position the German army had yet thrown in the path of the Allied forces. On August 25, 1944, it fell to I Canadian Corps to spearhead the famed Eighth Army's major offensive, intended to rip through it.The 1st Infantry and 5th Armored Divisions advanced into a killing ground covered by thousands of machine-gun, antitank gun positions, and pillboxes expertly sited behind minefields and dense thickets of barbed wire. Never had the Germans in Italy brought so much artillery to bear or deployed such a great number of tanks.For 28 days, the battle raged as the Allied troops slugged an ever deeper hole into the German defences. The Metauro River, the Foglia River, Point 204, Tomba Di Pesaro, Coriano Ridge, San Martino, and San Fortunato became place names seared into the memories of those who fought there.They fought in a dust-choked land under a searing sun which by battle's end was reduced to a guagmire by rain. But they prevailed and on September 22 won the ground overlooking the Po River Valley, opening the way for the next phase of the Allied advance.

Richard Morgan, "The Global Child Poverty Challenge: In search of solutions"
English | ISBN: 1853399663 | 2016 | 192 pages | EPUB | 5 MB
Children are the most vulnerable people in the world - but rarely has the impact of poverty on children been addressed as an urgent issue in its own right. The harm that deprivation does to girls and boys as individuals, and the lasting cost of poverty, have received too limited attention. Policies and programmes have not made best use of the growing evidence of 'what works' for the poorest children to support the efforts of families and children themselves to forge more prosperous futures. In a major effort to counter the invisibility of children in thinking on poverty reduction, The Global Child Poverty Challenge takes stock of a wide range of evidence on how children can be put at the centre of policies and programmes, in ways that recognize their capacities and centrality to future prosperity. The contributors look at experience with key interventions for investing in children - including social protection, basic services, skills development for future livelihoods, responsible microfinance and opportunities for decent work. 'Child sensitive' approaches based on child rights principles are seen as central to making these interventions work for the poorest children. Bringing together findings from a variety of settings, this book calls for the recognition of children as holders of rights and agents in their own development. It points to the experience of children living in poverty - and draws attention to their many roles: as learners, seekers of opportunity, as migrants, users of financial services and entrants to the world of work. This book is essential reading for all those working on social protection and poverty reduction programmes in developing countries, including researchers, policy makers, and those working for development agencies.

William C. Fuller Jr., "The Foe Within: Fantasies of Treason and the End of Imperial Russia"
English | ISBN: 0801444268 | 2006 | PDF | 304 pages | 34 MB
In the early morning of March 19, 1915, Lt. Colonel S. N. Miasoedov, a former gendarme officer on active duty with the Russian army in World War I, was hanged after a two-hour trial in Warsaw for treason. Although he was innocent of this charge, Miasoedov's hasty execution, set against the army's disastrous performance in the war against Germany, touched off a wave of "spy mania" that resulted in hundreds of arrests and eventually involved the highest reaches of the Russian Empire, including the minister of war, General V. A. Sukhomlinov, who was arrested for the same crime the following year.

Robert Drews, "The End of the Bronze Age: Changes in Warfare and the Catastrophe ca. 1200 B.C., 3rd Edition"
English | ISBN: 0691048118, 0691025916 | 1995 | PDF | 336 pages | 33 MB
The Bronze Age came to a close early in the twelfth century b.c. with one of the worst calamities in history: over a period of several decades, destruction descended upon key cities throughout the Eastern Mediterranean, bringing to an end the Levantine, Hittite, Trojan, and Mycenaean kingdoms and plunging some lands into a dark age that would last more than four hundred years. In his attempt to account for this destruction, Robert Drews rejects the traditional explanations and proposes a military one instead.

Anastasia Veneti, "The Emerald Handbook of Digital Media in Greece:Journalism and Political Communication in Times of Crisis "
English | ISBN: 1839824018 | 2020 | 584 pages | EPUB | 5 MB
The Emerald Handbook of Digital Media in Greece: Journalism and Political Communication in Times of Crisis addresses the impact of new technologies and the socio-economic crisis on journalism and presents the empirical applications of digital media in political communication and in a number of social settings including the environment, homelessness, migration and social movements. From 2008 Greek political communication and journalism were hit by two major forces. Firstly, the financial crisis, which progressed to an economic, then a political, and eventually a social and cultural crisis in Greece. Secondly, the disruptive transformation and acceleration of everyday networked technologies, which impacted news media in Greece throughout the same period. This book offers a comprehensive overview of the changing environment in Greece since the beginning of the global (and consequently local) financial crisis of 2008, and a contemporary discussion around the developments brought forward by digital media and communication technologies, specifically addressing political communication and journalism.
