War and the Liberal Conscience

Autor Sir Michael Howard
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 19 mar 2008
Which is better, appeasement or a war to end war? Such questions reflect the confusion that besets liberal-minded men and women in the face of war. This work traces the pattern in their attitudes from Erasmus to the Americans after Vietnam, and concludes that peacemaking 'is a task which has to be tackled afresh every day of our lives'.

Recenzii

'This is a book that everyone should read. It is a short, elegant masterpiece, where every chapter has the cliff-hangar ending of peace being declared, only to be followed by a new phase of war, more awful than that which had gone before.' -Professor James Gow, Dept. of War Studies, King's College London'lucid, witty and trenchant A... these anti-war theories could hardly be more interestingly presented.' -RUSI Journal'so well written that it could be read as a novel-except few novels are so interesting. To take one strand of history and unravel it in this way is not only a service to historians but to the ordinary bus-riding liberal anxious to clarify his own thought' -Books and Bookmen'The wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, and the possibility of more such operationsin future, make Sir Michael Howard's book of the greatest importance. Itshould be read not only by analysts, but by every concerned Western citizen.' -Anatol Lieven
