Paperback. Condizione: Good. As George W. Bush's Iraq mission unraveled, U.S. policy elites revived counterinsurgency doctrines - known in an earlier incarnation as pacification. The new edition of the "Counterinsurgency Field Manual" defines pacification as 'the process by which the government assert[s] its influence and control in an area beset by insurgents', which includes 'local security efforts, programs to distribute food and medical supplies, and lasting reforms (like land redistribution)'. Such language may sound innocuous, but for Kurt Jacobsen and fellow skeptics, 'pacification' and its synonym 'counterinsurgency' are stale euphemisms for violent suppression of popular resistance movements abroad - the tragic atrocities committed against non-combatants in Vietnam and elsewhere. In this pamphlet, Jacobsen examines pacification, the rehabilitation of repressive practices, and their attendant illusions - practices that, he argues, civilized nations have a duty to abandon.…

Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. 200 p.

Hardback. Condizione: Very Good. This book tells the dramatic story of the Danish company GN Store Nord and its founder, industrialist and visionary C.F. Tietgen, the forefather of modern communication. C.F. Tietgen and the Great Northern Telegraph Company made history when they set up telegraph cables in China and Japan in 1870-1871 and thus connected the two countries with the rest of the world through the world-wide communication network. Soon transatlantic submarine cables across the Pacific Ocean and North Atlantic Ocean followed. Through the 19th and 20th centuries the company endured rivals, revolutions, and civil wars in China and Russia, conflicts and wars in the Pacific Ocean and East Asia, the terror during Stalin's reign, and not least two world wars and the Cold War up until today's globalised and digitalised world. The story of the book moves through government offices and imperial chambers in China, Russia, Japan, and UK, the construction of telegraph lines in Chinese paddy fields, and cable-laying in unknown waters, travels on horseback through the impassable Siberia, and seminal decisions in contemporary boardrooms.…
