Read Synopsis [+]

Hide Synopsis [-]

The partition of Africa was one of the most spectacular episodes in modern history. For Europeans, Africa was still an unknown continent in 1880. Thirty years later almost all of it was under European control. This race for colonies went hand in hand with a host of thrilling exploits and dramatic conflicts, of which Stanley's exploration of the Congo and Gordon's death in Khartoum are just two examples.

Warfare & Society in Europe: 1898 to the Present (Chap. 1 "From Fashoda to Sarajevo")
by Michael S. Neiberg. 200 pgs.

Book

Read Synopsis [+]

Hide Synopsis [-]

Warfare and Society in Europe, 1898 to the Present examines warfare in Europe from the Fashoda conflict in modern-day Sudan to the recent war in Iraq. The twentieth century was by far the world's most destructive century with two global wars marking the first half of the century and the constant fear of nuclear annihilation haunting the second half.Throughout, this book treats warfare as a function of larger political, cultural, social and economic issues and includes discussion of:* the alliances that led to the outbreak of the First World War* the First World War* the Second World War* the increasing role played by the United States in Europe's twentieth century wars* Eastern European wars such as the Russian Civil War and the Greco-Turkish war* new technologies and weapons.Combining a traditional survey of military history with a survey of social issues, Michael S. Neiberg both examines how social changes have impacted the nature of war fighting and how war has shaped the basic patterns of European society.

Democracy and Coercive Diplomacy ("Fashoda revisited" begins on p. 175)
by Kenneth A. Schultz. 301 pgs.

Book

Read Synopsis [+]

Hide Synopsis [-]

Schultz explores the effects of democratic politics on coercive diplomacy. He argues that open political competition between government and opposition parties influences threats in international crises, how rival states interpret those threats, and whether or not crises can be settled short of war. Compared to their nondemocratic counterparts, democracies make threats more selectively, but those they do make are more likely to be successful--that is, to gain a favorable outcome without war. Schultz uses game-theoretic models and tests the resulting hypothesis using both statistical analyses and historical case studies.
