The Big Stick: The Limits of Soft Power and the Necessity of Military Force
Autor Eliot A. Cohenen Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 apr 2018
"A
must-read
for
anyone
interested
in
military
might--and
how
it
can
help
us
maintain
the
edge
we
need
in
this
treacherous
age."
--Walter
Russell
Mead,Wall
Street
Journal
InThe
Big
Stick,
Eliot
A.
Cohen
argues
that
hard
power
is
essential
to
cope
with
the
challenge
of
an
ambitious
and
well-armed
China,
the
continuing
threat
from
violent
jihadists,
the
rise
of
revisionist
states
such
as
Russia,
and
the
problems
posed
by
ungoverned
areas
from
outer
space
to
cyberspace.
It
is
a
clear-eyed
account
of
what
military
means
can
and--equally
important--cannot
do,
the
lessons
of
recent
wars,
and
how
soft
power
can
supplement,
but
never
fully
replace,
armed
force.

Recenzii
"Insightful."—Kori
Schake,Foreign
Affairs
"A balanced and sensitive analysis of America's military record since the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001...Mr. Cohen's lucid book is a must-read for anyone interested in military might--and how it can help us maintain the edge we need in this treacherous age."—Walter Russell Mead,Wall Street Journal
"Even if you disagree with Mr. Cohen... it's easy to spend time in his company. He writes thoughtfully, methodically, with unfussy erudition... an unfashionable, unabashed and - above all - unwavering case for the use of force in the service of American security and ideals."—Jennifer Senior,New York Times
"When one looks at the world as it is rather than how one may want it to be...Cohen's prescriptions make sense... I hope the valuable strategic analysis in this book will be taken up by the new administration."—John Hillen,War on the Rocks
