The world is currently closer to superpower conflict than at any time since the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis. World War III is a real possibility, and with 12,000 warheads in the arsenals of more than half a dozen countries, we are standing on a nuclear knife edge. Despite receiving very little attention, nuclear war is a far greater threat to humanity's immediate survival than climate change. While climate heating threatens humanity over many decades, nuclear war could destroy civilisation in just a few hours.

Vladimir Poutine, au pouvoir depuis plus de vingt ans, incarne une trajectoire politique quasi monarchique. Issu des services de renseignement, il a su se hisser au sommet du Kremlin et façonner son propre mythe. Personnage complexe, stratège redoutable, chef de guerre qualifié tour à tour de tsar ou de tyran ou de Hitler moderne, il est l’une des figures politiques les plus représentées et caricaturées au monde. Ses choix stratégiques controversés sont présentés comme autant de réponses à l’hégémonie occidentale.

Britain was encouraged to participate in the second Gulf War by the publication of an intelligence report that suggested that Saddam Hussein could attack the UK with weapons of mass destruction within 45 minutes. When the WMDs failed to materialise, the original report was questioned, it was suggested in parliament that it had been "sexed up" as a way to scare the UK into war. Ann Taylor (MP) led an investigation to determine if the the public had been misled, and this is what they found.

Dr. Ewen argues that the advent of the internet and social media has radically transformed the flow of information, making it more democratic and accessible to people across different continents. This democratization of information has, in turn, empowered individuals and non-state actors, enabling them to play a more significant role in the international arena. The book illustrates how these changes are challenging the conventional notions of sovereignty and control that nations have traditionally held, forcing a reevaluation of how power is understood and wielded on the global stage.

The first rule of nuclear war is that there are no rules. Up to now, no one outside of official circles has known exactly what would happen if a rogue state launched a nuclear missile at the Pentagon. Second by second and minute by minute, these are the real-life protocols that choreograph the end of civilisation as we know it. Because the plans for General Nuclear War are among the most classified secrets held by the United States government, this book takes the listener up to the razor’s edge of what can legally be known.

The fusion of distributed artificial intelligence with highly autonomous military systems ushers in a type of lightning-quick conflict that has never been seen before. Yet this is more than a revolution in military affairs; it is a revolution in human affairs that will transform the 21st century defense and security environment. Advances in AI will fundamentally change the human condition, and with it, a profoundly human undertaking war.

"Unraveling the Complex Web of Power: Media, Manipulation, and the Military-Industrial Complex" offers a profound exploration of the intricate and often concealed interactions between media, propaganda, and the potent machinery of the military-industrial complex. These compelling essays illuminate the subtle strategies employed by powerful elites to shape public perception and assert control, beginning from the era of World War I to the transformative moments of the Civil Rights Movement.

Blankenship identifies three factors that determine the severity of this burden-sharing dilemma and how it is managed: the latent military power of allies, the shared external threat environment, and the level of a patron's resource constraints. Through case studies of US alliances formed during the Cold War, he shows that a patron can mitigate the dilemma by combining assurances of protection with threats of abandonment and by exercising discretion in its burden-sharing pressure.

Just a few years ago, people spoke of the US as a hyperpower—a titan stalking the world stage with more relative power than any empire in history. Yet as early as 1993, CIA director James Woolsey pointed out that although Western powers had "slain a large dragon" by defeating the Soviet Union in the Cold War, they now faced a "variety of poisonous snakes." In The Dragons and the Snakes, the eminent soldier-scholar David Kilcullen asks how, and what, opponents of the West have learned during the last quarter-century of conflict.

Two leading authorities—an acclaimed historian and the outstanding battlefield commander and strategist of our time—collaborate on a landmark examination of war since 1945. Conflict is both a sweeping history of the evolution of warfare up to Putin’s invasion of the Ukraine, and a penetrating analysis of what we must learn from the past—and anticipate in the future—in order to navigate an increasingly perilous world.

In the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, with US and Russia relations approaching a breaking point, this book provides a key to understanding how we got here. Specifically, Stephen P. Friot asks, how do Russians and Americans think about each other, and why do they see the world so differently? The answers, Friot suggests, lie in the historical events surrounding the Cold War and their divergent influence on politics and popular consciousness.

This book by military strategist Andrew F. Krepinevich, Jr., is the definitive take on the race for military dominance in the twenty-first century. It shows how militaries that successfully pursue disruptive innovation can gain a major advantage over their rivals, while those that fail to do so risk exposing their countries to great danger.

Den brutalen Überfall Russlands auf die Ukraine konnte die NATO trotz ihrer Bemühungen nicht verhindern: Die Folgen des Krieges werden Europa und die Welt noch jahrelang erschüttern. Nicht nur Russland, sondern auch sein enger Partner China stellt den Westen in Zukunft vor enorme strategische Herausforderungen – und die NATO darf ihre Fehler nicht wiederholen. Die Strategieexpertin Dr. Stefanie Babst gewährt Einblicke in das Innere des transatlantischen Bündnisses.

Not since the last American troops left Vietnam have we faced such a sudden vacuum in our foreign policy—not only of authority, but also of explanations of what happened, and what the future holds. Few analysts are better poised to address this moment than Noam Chomsky and Vijay Prashad, intellectuals and critics whose work spans generations and continents.

Taiwan’s position looks increasingly precarious, and tensions threaten to grow into a major strategic crisis. Chinese President Xi Jinping has made reunification with Taiwan a central pillar of his vision for China, and has ramped up diplomatic and economic pressure on Taiwan.

Putins Krieg, Rückzug aus Afghanistan, Corona, Flüchtlingskrise 2015, Klimawandel: Erst der Schaden, dann das Handeln. Deutschland und Europa haben sich über viele Jahre in den Zustand der Hilflosigkeit manövriert gegenüber den großen Herausforderungen unserer Zeit. Wir müssen diese bittere Lehre verinnerlichen und Konsequenzen ziehen. Deutschland, Europa und der Westen brauchen eine grundlegend neue Außenpolitik mit einem neuen Realismus gegenüber den Gefährdern von Frieden und Freiheit.

A timely primer on the conflict between the United States and Iran by scholars of Middle Eastern politics who advocate diplomacy and de-escalation.
