Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. While armed forces in several countries underwent deep transformations after the end of the Cold War, few, if any, experienced more radical changes than Germany, Italy and Japan. This book explores how these three countries have modified the posture and structure of their militaries over the past three decades. While each country has had to overcome a pacifist constitution, a widespread view in both elite and public opinion that war was a taboo and armed forces should be designed to defend and deter against large-scale threats, they have all become more active security providers over recent decades.Each country, however, has followed a distinct path. This book reconstructs these paths to show how a mixture of external and domestic factors affected the pace and the extent of transformations. The book also identifies critical junctures in such processes: any push to change it argues is mediated by the need to come to terms with the cumbersome weight of the past. How and why the three losers of the Second World War reconsidered their pacifism, embraced a more active military role and transformed their armed forces after the Cold War Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Brossura. Condición: new. A cura di Cavo F. e De Ninno F. Roma, 2025; br., pp. 200, cm 17x24. (Centro interuniversitario di studi e ricerche storico-militari. 32). Negli ultimi decenni il Mediterraneo allargato si è affermato come concetto fondamentale per la politica di difesa ed estera italiane. Questo volume ne ricostruisce per la prima volta le origini, l'evoluzione storica e le implicazioni contemporanee, attraverso un dialogo tra storici e scienziati politici. Rifuggendo il determinismo geopolitico, il libro muove da una dimensione interdisciplinare per indagare in profondità cosa significa il Mediterraneo allargato per l'Italia. I saggi che compongono il volume ne ricostruiscono lo sviluppo come visione politico-strategica della classe dirigente italiana, tracciandone l'evoluzione dagli anni Settanta fino ai giorni nostri. Il Mediterraneo allargato emerge così come risultato dell'interazione tra il Paese e i mutamenti di una regione interconnessa che si estende ben oltre i confini del Mediterraneo geografico. Libro. …

Hardback. Condición: New. This book sets out to explain the foreign policy of Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi (February 2014 to December 2016). It offers a unique analytical framework to make sense of Renzi's foreign policy: the domestically-focused outsider. It argues that to untangle Renzi's foreign policy one must first understand that his clear priority was enacting domestic economic and political reforms. Domestic focus means that Renzi made foreign policy decisions with a sensitivity to public opinion and party unity. The book also argues that Renzi's status as an outsider in Italian politics-having previously served only as the mayor of Florence-provides critical insight into his foreign policy. Renzi was prone to skepticism of the establishment and dramatic, symbolic gestures rather than patient coalition building. The book applies this framework to the five most important foreign policy issues Renzi's government faced: migration, finance and the EU, Russia, ISIL, and Libya. The book's analysis of the cases benefits from over twenty elite interviews, including those with senior members of Renzi's government.…

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. 1st Edition. Hardcover, x + 151 pages, NOT ex-library. Book is clean and bright throughout with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Minor handling wear only. Issued without a dust jacket. -- This work provides a detailed analysis of the transformation of the Italian armed forces in the post-Cold War era. It examines how Italy, a mid-sized power, has adapted its military capabilities and strategic posture to meet the demands of new international security challenges, from expeditionary peacekeeping operations to coalition warfare. The authors analyze the complex interplay of political, economic, and strategic factors that have shaped this evolution, including budget constraints, the shift from conscription to a professional force, and the pressures of alliance commitments within NATO and the EU. The book uses Italy as a key case study to explore the broader challenges of military adaptation for European states in the 21st century. -- Contents: 1 Introduction; 2 Military Transformation: The Quest for Coherence and Adjustment; 3 Force Transformation: Italy in Comparative Perspective; 4 Force Deployment and Field Experience from Afghanistan to Libya; 5 Patterns of Learning and Change; 6 Conclusions; References; Appendix; Index -- "European armed forces have undergone deep changes in the past two decades. Given the breadth of the debate and the size of transformations that took place, it is somewhat surprising that relatively few academic studies have directly dealt with changes in force structure of European militaries, and the Italian armed forces in particular. The focus of this book is the organizational dimension of the restructuring of armed forces through three different lenses: doctrine and strategic framework, budget and resource allocation, and force structure and deployment. The key issues addressed relate to how these factors interact in shaping transformation. Of particular interest is the theme of learning, which is how armed forces endogenize change in the short and long run. This study provides valuable insights into the extent to which armed forces manage to adapt to the emerging strategic and operational challenges they have to face and to illustrate the weight of institutional legacies, resource constraints and inter-organizational learning in shaping transformation. Focusing on the Italian case in comparative perspective and based on a large variety of military operations from airstrikes to peacekeeping and counterinsurgency, the book provides an innovative viewpoint on military transformation and significantly contributes to our understanding of contemporary security that is deeply shaped by the lessons learnt in Afghanistan, Lebanon, Iraq and Libya.".…
