"Few people are better qualified to write about muscular international intervention than muscular Paddy Ashdown . . . so his book . . . has plenty to recommend it." - The Economist, "Ashdown is the best qualified person to tackle the question of whether intervention is justified and if so how it can succeed." - The Spectator, Ashdown is the best qualified person to tackle the question of whether intervention is justified and if so how it can succeed., "Plainly written . . . He says it is not a primer, but it will rightly be taken as one . . . many sensible arguments." - The Guardian, plainly written... He says it is not a primer, but it will rightly be taken as one... many sensible arguments., "What makes Ashdown attractive is his down-to-earth approach, his independence and his frankness." - The Independent, Few people are better qualified to write about muscular international intervention than muscular Paddy Ashdown... so his book... has plenty to recommend it.

Synopsis
How can it be ensured that current missions in Afghanistan, Iraq, the Balkans, and other similar peacekeeping missions do not turn into long-term entanglements? How can the soldiers in these locations be successfully brought home? And what should be done about so-called failed states that are havens for gangsters and terrorists? Paddy Ashdown, a former Marine and diplomat, fears that major wars will soon develop between nation states. Many will begin as minor conflicts but will expand into full-scale wars unless the international community intervenes. The way to stop the big wars is to deal promptly with the small ones. There have been 15 UN-led interventions since 1946, and there are 74 wars in progress today. Lord Ashdown is uniquely qualified to investigate the successes and failures of peacekeeping operations, and to reveal what lessons have been learned, as well as the lessons that are repeatedly forgotten. His discussion of the highs and lows of previous missions covers a broad span of history. He notes, for instance, that planning for post-war government in Germany began in 1943, two years before the guns fell silent. By contrast, George Bush sacked the teams working on plans for a post-Saddam Iraq just as US and British forces invaded in 2003. With clarity and unique insight, this timely study reveals the strategies required to avoid diplomatic and military disasters.", How can it be ensured that current missions in Afghanistan, Iraq, the Balkans, and other similar peacekeeping missions do not turn into long-term entanglements?

- c***c (225)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufMy book arrived in good condition. Packaging was a rigid cardboard mailer, and it protected my book well. It was shipped in a reasonable amount of time, but I was still prompted to reach out to inquire further about it. Seller communication was very good, answering me within 24-hours. I was told shipping can take 9-15 days to happen... it arrived within 10 days after purchase. I would purchase from this seller again. Two thumbs up!

The book arrived in excellent condition, exactly as described. It was packaged in a sturdy, reusable cardboard envelope using no plastic at all. Delivery was surprisingly fast, exceeding my expectations. I highly recommend this Seller!The Wombat Who Talked to the Stars By Jill Morris (Nr. 335855773715)
