Carlo Masala warnt in diesem Hörbuch vor den Illusionen des Westens: der Illusion, die Globalisierung würde automatisch zur Verbreitung der Demokratie führen, der Illusion einer zunehmenden Verrechtlichung der internationalen Beziehungen, aber auch der Illusion, durch militärische Interventionen ließen sich Demokratie und Stabilität exportieren. Seit der Niederlage in Afghanistan und Putins Krieg gegen die Ukraine stehen die Grundlagen westlicher Außen- und Sicherheitspolitik auf dem Prüfstand.

As the 2022 National Security Strategy and National Defense Strategy (NDS) makes clear, the United States is in the midst of a decisive decade where the terms of geopolitical competition between the world’s major powers will be set. The Department of Defense (DoD) will advance its priorities in three interlocking ways– through integrated deterrence, campaigning, and by building enduring advantages. Accelerated technology advancement and innovation are key elements to achieving DoD priorities through these strategic ways, and to ensure our national security over the long term.

Über Deutschlands Rolle in einer veränderten Welt. Russlands Angriffskrieg gegen die Ukraine wirft ein grelles Licht auf eine geopolitische Landschaft, die schon länger im Umbruch ist. Der Krieg zeichnet Konturen schärfer, beschleunigt Entwicklungen, zwingt zu radikalem Wandel. Nach seinem Bestseller "Zeitenwende" identifiziert Rüdiger von Fritsch in seinem neuen Buch die Entwicklungslinien der Zukunft - und gibt Antworten auf drängende Fragen: Was kommt nach dem Krieg? Wie wird sich der Konflikt zwischen den USA und China entwickeln?

Spionagesatelliten in der Umlaufbahn des Mondes. Bodenschätze im Weltraum, wertvoller als das Bruttoinlandsprodukt der meisten Länder. Menschen auf dem Mars in den nächsten zehn Jahren. Das ist keine Science-Fiction, sondern Astropolitik. Der Mensch ist unterwegs ins All – und wir nehmen unsere Machtkämpfe mit. Bald wird das Geschehen im Universum die Weltgeschichte genauso prägen wie die Berge, Flüsse und Meere auf der Erde. Politik-Experte Tim Marshall legt die geopolitischen Realitäten offen.

Again and again, American taxpayers are asked to open their wallets and pay for a national security machine that costs $1.25 trillion operate. How is it possible that the United States Government gets it so wrong on so many critical issues, and so often? And if our expensive national security machine is not working, what can be done?

Als Russland am 24. Februar 2022 die Ukraine angriff, schien das großen Teilen der russischen Gesellschaft egal zu sein. Das ist nicht Uberraschend. Seit Jahren wird das russische Expansionsstreben davon begleitet, dass gesellschaftlich das Recht des StArkeren gilt. Gewalt wird von vielen als Mittel der Politik akzeptiert. Gesine DornblUth und Thomas Franke erklAren, wie es dazu kommen konnte. Ihre Reportagen und Analysen fUhren uns durch drei Jahrzehnte, in denen nationalistische KrAfte Uber Verfechter demokratischer Werte die Oberhand gewannen.

Before World War II, transparent government was a proud tradition in the United States. In all but the most serious of circumstances, classification, covert operations, and spying were considered deeply un-American. But after the war, the power to decide what could be kept secret proved too tempting to give up. Since then, we have radically departed from that open tradition, allowing intelligence agencies, black sites, and classified laboratories to grow unchecked. Officials insist that only secrecy can keep us safe, but its true costs have gone unacknowledged for too long.

Miller is a true American warrior whose incredible journey from Iowa to Afghanistan to Iraq to the White House endeared him to the troops, prepared him for the unprecedented crisis of January 6, and left him deeply concerned about the future of our military and the future of our nation.

En 2004 Michoacán se resquebrajó. Ese año, los cárteles, insatisfechos con las ganancias obtenidas con el tráfico de drogas, diversificaron sus actividades e incursionaron en la extorsión, el secuestro, el pillaje y, en el colmo del sadismo, la violación y la tortura. Después de una década de violencia desatada, los habitantes de la zona reaccionaron. Empobrecidos por los embates del crimen, olvidados por las autoridades, furiosos y hartos, decidieron tomar la justicia en sus manos.

On January 6, 2021, insurgents stormed the U.S. Capitol, an act of domestic terror without parallel in American history, designed to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power. In a resolution six months later, the House of Representatives called it "one of the darkest days of our democracy," and established a special committee to investigate how and why the attack happened. Celadon Books, in collaboration with The New Yorker, presents the committee's final report, the definitive account of January 6th and what led up to it.

Disarmament in the Time of Perestroika is the definitive history of the implementation of the INF Treaty signed by Mikhail Gorbachev and Ronald Reagan in all its complexities, and the lengths both sides went to “trust, but verify” this successful and unique historic disarmament process.

The End of Victory recounts the costs of failure in nuclear war through the work of the most secret deliberative body of the National Security Council, the Net Evaluation Subcommittee (NESC). From 1953 onward, US leaders wanted to know as precisely as possible what would happen if they failed in a nuclear war—how many Americans would die and how much of the country would remain. The NESC told Presidents Dwight Eisenhower and John F. Kennedy what would be the result of the worst failure of American strategy.

In The Four Ages of American Foreign Policy, Michael Mandelbaum offers a new framework for understanding the evolution of the foreign policy of the United States. He divides that evolution into four distinct periods, with each defined by the consistent increase in American power relative to other countries. His history of the four periods features engaging accounts of the major events and important personalities in the foreign policy of each era.

Before the cyber age, foreign interference in Western democratic politics played out in a comparatively narrow arena. The explosive expansion of cyberspace has radically altered this situation. The hacking activities of Russian military agents in the 2016 US presidential election and other major incidents demonstrate the magnitude of the contemporary problem. This is a struggle that the West is losing. Lucas Kello delves into recent history to reveal the failures of present policy in preventing and punishing cyberattacks and other forms of technological aggression.

If it seems to you that Barack Obama and Joe Biden have weakened America and emboldened our enemies, you’re not alone. But Senator Cotton explains that their failures aren’t just incompetence or bad luck—it’s decline by design. Only the Strong reveals the untold inside story of how progressive ideologues and Democratic politicians abandoned the American tradition of strength, pride, and honor.

An international group of experts confronts challenges to peace and conflict diplomacy—defined as the effort to manage others' conflicts, cope with great power competition, and deal with threats to the state system itself. They consider three potential scenarios for world order where key states decide to go it alone, return to a liberal order, or collaborate on a case-by-case basis to address common problems. These three scenarios are then evaluated through the prism of regional perspectives from around the world and for their potential ramifications for major security threats.

Russland beginnt einen Angriffskrieg gegen die Ukraine, nur wenige Monate zuvor erleben die USA in Afghanistan ein außenpolitisches Debakel, und längst ist der Systemrivale China zur entscheidenden Supermacht aufgestiegen – der Westen steckt in einer nie da gewesenen Krise. Dabei schien der Siegeszug noch vor kurzem unaufhaltsam: Nach dem Ende des Kalten Krieges setzte sich im ehemaligen Ostblock die demokratische Marktwirtschaft durch, Russland wurde vom Feind zum Partner, selbst China wandte sich dem Kapitalismus zu.

The Sino-American contest is driven by clashing geopolitical interests and a stark ideological dispute over whether authoritarianism or democracy will dominate the twenty-first century. But both history and China's current trajectory suggest that this rivalry will reach its moment of maximum danger in the 2020s. The Chinese challenge will most likely prove more manageable than many pessimists currently believe—but during the 2020s, the pace of Sino-American conflict will accelerate, and the prospect of war will be frighteningly real.

Cosa si prova a salvare vite nel Mediterraneo? Per capirlo puoi solo salire a bordo. "Nel Mediterraneo la vita la cerchi, la perdi o la trovi, e questa riduzione all'essenziale è potentissima. Senza orpelli, senza scappatoie, ti lascia a nudo confronto con una nuda alternativa, ti spoglia come l'acqua. Ma la chiave per capirlo non è il sentimento della morte. È il sentimento della vita". In questi anni, le navi delle Ong che soccorrono i migranti sono state al centro di polemiche e narrazioni ostili. Ma pochi conoscono quello che succede davvero a bordo.

A sobering and fascinating study on war in the modern era, Unrestricted Warfare carefully explores strategies that militarily and politically disadvantaged nations might take in order to successfully attack a geopolitical super-power like the United States. American military doctrine is typically led by technology; a new class of weapon or vehicle is developed, which allows or encourages an adjustment in strategy. Military strategists Qiao Liang and Wang Xiangsui argue that this dynamic is a crucial weakness in the American military.
