Afghanistan, 1839. The British East India Company dominated the Indian subcontinent, yet they were not secure in their position. Holding unjustified fears that Russia threatened India's north-western border, the Company decided to make a pre-emptive strike and ensure that this menace would be stopped by a strong pro-British Afghanistan. Thousands of British and Indian troops invaded this mountainous land to intervene in a succession dispute between emir Dost Mahommed Khan and former emir Shah Shuja-ool-Mulk. After capturing Kabul they placed the cruel, but pro-British Shah Shuja upon the throne once again, and supported him with an overwhelming military presence. However, the proud and ruthless warriors of Afghanistan were unwilling to submit themselves to British control and within three years they had risen up against their oppressors in one of the bloodiest revolts in history.

English | June 4, 2022 | ASIN: B0B37Y6HJN, ISBN: 1914208854, 1914208846 | True AZW3 | 550 pages | 2.4 MB
Andrew Korybko's analyses of Russia's relationships and perspectives come at just the right time. They provide a clear and critical insight into how Moscow perceives its status and civilizational goals. Since Russian media are being censored as a petulant rejection of hearing the other side, we need to listen to this genuine Russian viewpoint. This collection of articles covers a variety of topics: creating a multipolar world in opposition to the US-led unipolar one, geostrategic goals among Russia's allies, America's use of hybrid war and color revolutions to achieve hegemony, as well as the economic objectives of the multipolar players (Russia, China, and Iran, among others) and their vision for the world.

Virtues from Hell: Survivors of Conflicts and the Reconstruction-Reconciliation Processes by Fidèle Ingiyimbere
English | EPUB | 2022 | 166 Pages | ISBN : 3030891720 | 0.3 MB
This book offers a critical examination of certain ideas and values-such as remembering, forgiveness, story-telling through Truth and Reconciliation Commissions, etc.-that undergird the transitional practices and mechanisms of societies emerging from conflicts. It does so by making the survivors' experience the supreme and ultimate judge of the legitimacy of such practices. While many scholars have dealt with these topics, this book provides a unique perspective on them by using personal stories, narratives and memoirs of the survivors as a checking point of the theoretical elaboration of these ideas and values.

In order to properly understand the nature of the conflicts that currently plague the Middle East―and have for so many decades―it is essential to grasp the fundamental differences between Muslim autocracies, radical Islamist movements, and democracies. Recognizing how the countries and governments involved differ in terms of their political, social, and military organization, and with regard to how their past histories influence the way they approach conflicts, is the first step towards achieving a more stable and peaceful environment for the groups involved.
