Paul Struhsaker’s new book, How the Hell Did We Get Here? is a comprehensive guide to this emerging new Cold War and our need to rebuild deterrence.

Deterrence is a complex subject. Historically, the subject of Cold War deterrence and resilience has been dealt with piecemeal, and a comprehensive overview of deterrence has not been available. The purpose of this book is to fill that void.

It includes propaganda, political or economic subversion, paramilitary action, and assassinations.

Seit der Niederlage in Afghanistan und Putins Krieg gegen die Ukraine stehen die Grundlagen westlicher Außen- und Sicherheitspolitik auf dem Prüfstand.
