Найти книгу: "21st Century Mahan"

Alfred Thayer Mahan’s The Influence of Seapower upon History is well known to students of naval history and strategy, but his other writings are often dismissed as irrelevant to today’s problems. This collection of five of Mahan’s essays, along with Benjamin Armstrong’s informative introductions, illustrates why Mahan’s work remains relevant to the 21st century and how it can help develop our strategic thinking. People misunderstand Mahan, the editor argues, because they have read only what others say about him, not what Mahan wrote himself. Armstrong’s analysis is derived directly from Mahan’s own writings. From the challenges of bureaucratic organization and the pit falls of staff duty, to the development of global strategy and fleet composition, to illustrations of effective combat leadership, Armstrong demonstrates that Mahan’s ideas continue to provide today’s readers with a solid foundation to address the challenges of a rapidly globalizing world.

«The Centre for Irish and Celtic Studies at the University of Ulster hosted at Coleraine, between the 24th and 26th August 2000, a very successful and informative conference on ‘Celtic Literatures in the Twentieth Century’. The lectures and the discussions were of a high standard, and it was the intention of the organisers to edit and publish the proceedings as soon as possible thereafter. Unfortunately, due to dif culties in assembling some of the papers, this was not possible and, consequently, publication has been delayed much longer than was originally anticipated. Despite this delay, we feel that those papers which we have received merit publication at this time, not only because of their intrinsicmerits, but also because they represent the views of the authors on their respective topics at the turn of the twenty rst century and will hopefully be of value to those interested in the state of the modern Celtic literatures.»

«Исламская цивилизация, в принципе отрицает независимость личности, ее индивидуальные права и свободы, жестко требует от своих приверженцев полного духовного и физического подчинения, восприятия ими ислама в качестве своей человеческой сущности. Реактивный количественный рост исламского населения, подстрекаемый Турцией, Саудовской Аравией, Пакистаном, Катаром и другими, их переселение в дряхлеющие европейские страны, с целью их постепенной исламизации, последние годы особенно усилился. Классическая схема этого процесса выглядит так. Сначала массовая миграция голодных молодых мужчин и женщин, детей, потом их консолидация вокруг мечетей, исламских школ и медресе, бурный количественный рост в новых в значительно более благоприятных условиях, обособленная жизнь в своих анклавах на средства, выделенные государством в качестве социальной помощи и строительство, посланные Турцией, Саудовской Аравией, Катаром и другими деньги, новых мечетей, натурализация и приобретение гражданства, создание подручной пятой колонны и политических партий, бесконечные стычки и требования для живущих по шариату неработающих мусульман новых социальных благ…»
