From his days as a young adviser in Vietnam to his last efforts to end the war in Afghanistan, Holbrooke embodied the postwar American impulse to take the lead on the global stage.

Questo libro che il Mulino ripubblica in una nuova edizione rivista è un'opera importante sulla guerra: non solo e non tanto dal punto di vista dell'evoluzione tecnica e strategica ma anche e soprattutto da quello dell'ideologia e della mentalità: insomma della sua "cultura": com'era, quale posto aveva nella vita delle società, come la vivevano gli uomini che la facevano e la subivano.

The challenge is that while the Marines are working FARPs and other means to enhance force mobility, the joint force is in the throes of significant change, whether it be the U.S. Navy working distributed maritime operations or ...
