I Love Russia takes us to places that non-Russians have never seen and brings us voices we have never heard. It is Elena Kostyuchenko’s courageous attempt to document Russia as experienced by those whom it systematically and brutally erases: village girls recruited into sex work, queer people in the outer provinces, patients and doc­tors at a Ukrainian maternity ward, and reporters like herself. At once uncompromising and deeply humane, it stitches reportage and personal essays into a kaleidoscopic, often other-worldly journey. Here is Russia as it is, not as we imagine it.

In the aftermath of the 2020 presidential election, Donald Trump and many around him, including certain other elected Republican officials, intentionally breached their oath to the Constitution: they ignored the rulings of dozens of courts, plotted to overturn a lawful election, and provoked a violent attack on our Capitol.

Designing and operating an effective White House are critical to the success of any presidency—and to democracy in the United States. Former White House Deputy Chief of Staff Christopher Liddell offers a strategic approach to building a strong and successful presidency. An astute and experienced operative, he demonstrates persuasively that action must be taken early, comprehensively, and visibly, starting in what he calls Year Zero, the year before governing.

Israele stava già attraversando un periodo di crisi drammatica prima del criminale attacco del 7 ottobre 2023. Grandi manifestazioni chiedevano a gran voce le dimissioni di Netanyahu e del suo governo e il paese era praticamente bloccato. La risposta al gesto terroristico di Hamas con la guerra di Gaza rischia però di essere un vero e proprio suicidio per Israele.

Thousands answer the call from all over the world: some of them experienced soldiers, others novices who’ve never held a gun before. Among their ranks are high-minded idealists, adventure-seekers bored with civilian life, and ex-criminals seeking redemption – all risking their lives against the world's most vicious superpower.

Sommer 1945: Nichts ist mehr, wie es war: In den vier Monaten von Mai bis September 1945 bricht die alte Welt zusammen, und eine neue tut sich auf ...

Given the length of time the United States spent in Iraq, there is a perception that there was no consideration before the war of what should be done after coalition forces arrived in Baghdad and removed Saddam Hussein. However as this unofficial history reveals, there was a great deal of planning to address how to achieve the policy objectives for Iraq set by the Bush administration.

Blending narrative history, travelogue, and personal reminiscences, Unsung Land, Aspiring Nation is an engaging memoir as well as an insightful meditation on the realities of nation-making and international development.

Quando diciamo: "Prima gli italiani!" cosa intendiamo? Chi ha la cittadinanza italiana o chi in Italia ci abita? Chi parla italiano? Chi ha genitori italiani o chi in Italia ci è nato? E non è la prima volta che ci poniamo questa domanda: ha cominciato Dante con la ‘serva Italia’; poi d’Azeglio con gli ‘italiani da fare’; e ancora, i ‘santi, poeti e navigatori’; gli ‘italiani nuovi’ fascisti o ‘gli italiani brava gente’. Urliamo questo slogan in un paese dai confini incerti, diviso tra nord e sud, est e ovest, città e campagna.

Nel discorso pubblico italiano e internazionale c’è una formula che ritorna costantemente: "la Germania ha saputo fare i conti con il nazismo". Se però andiamo a verificare quanto c’è di vero in questa frase, ci accorgiamo quanto il passato nazista abbia condizionato il lungo dopoguerra tedesco, generando una tacita e continua tensione, ma producendo solo occasionalmente effettive prese di responsabilità. In questo libro scopriremo come, dopo decenni di oblio e di silenzio interessato, si è cominciato ad affrontare questo tema.

Immaginate un paese in cui si ripete costantemente "che c'entriamo noi col fascismo?" e "ma poi, anche se fosse, tanto non era una dittatura, anzi ha fatto pure qualche cosa di buono". Immaginate un paese dove il crollo del fascismo viene chiamato anche 'morte della patria', dove la Resistenza diventa un'eredità scomoda da nascondere quanto prima nella soffitta della memoria. Ecco, ora immaginate di mettere alla prova dei fatti queste parole che sono diventate quasi senso comune.

Peace & Health is the story behind this improbable effort: the 20-year-old who plants the flag in his small hometown of Middletown, Connecticut; the daughter of a sharecropper, who made her way north during the great migration and becomes the North Star of the drive to transform health in the community.

La seconda guerra fredda vede dittature e regimi assediare i paesi democratici: l'epicentro dello scontro è l'Europa, le armi preferite sono ingerenze politiche e ricatti strategici, i duelli più duri avvengono nel cyberspazio, e l'Italia è uno dei più vivaci campi di battaglia. Neanche il papa è indenne da quanto sta avvenendo. La Russia di Putin e la Cina di Xi vogliono trasformare l'Europa in un terreno di conquiste, politiche ed economiche, al fine di far implodere NATO e UE, allontanando quanto più possibile gli Stati Uniti dai loro alleati.

Putin's Wars is a timely overview of the conflicts in which Russia has been involved since Vladimir Putin became prime minister and then president of Russia, from the First Chechen War to the two military incursions into Georgia, the annexation of Crimea and the eventual invasion of Ukraine itself. But it also looks more broadly at Putin's recreation of Russian military power and its expansion to include a range of new capabilities, from mercenaries to operatives in a relentless information war against Western powers.

The presidency of George W. Bush has been the subject of extensive commentary but limited scholarly analysis in the years since he left office. 43 draws extensively, but not solely, from the recently released interviews of the Miller Center's Presidential Oral History Program at the University of Virginia.

The second Nagorno-Karabakh war—fought between Armenia and Azerbaijan between September 24 and November 10, 2020—was the first war in history won primarily by unmanned systems. This forty-four-day war resulted in a decisive military victory for Azerbaijan. Armenia was outfought, outnumbered, and outspent and lost even though they controlled the high ground in a mountainous region. The fact that Azerbaijan won the war is not extraordinary. What is exceptional is that this was the first modern war primarily decided by unmanned weapons.

This book is a comprehensive guide to modern Ukraine and to the versions of its past propagated by both Russians and Ukrainians. Andrew Wilson provides the most acute, informed, and up-to-date account available of the Ukrainians and their country. Concentrating on the complex relation between Ukraine and Russia, the book begins with the myth of common origin in the early medieval era, then looks closely at the Ukrainian experience under the tsars and Soviets, the experience of minorities in the country, and the path to independence in 1991.
