Hardback. Condición: Very Good. This new study of American support to the regime of Ngo Dinh Diem in South Vietnam illuminates many contemporary events and foreign policies. During the Eisenhower and Kennedy administrations, the United States used foreign police and paramilitary assistance to combat the spread of communist revolution in the developing world. This became the single largest internal security programme during the neglected 1955-1963 period. Yet despite presidential attention and a sustained campaign to transform Diem's police and paramilitary forces into modern, professional services, the United States failed to achieve its objectives. Given the scale of its efforts, and the Diem regime's importance to the US leadership, this text identifies the three key factors that contributed to the failure of American policy. First, the competing conceptions of Diem's civilian and military advisers. Second, the reforms advanced by US police training personnel were also at odds with the political agenda of the South Vietnamese leader. Finally, the flawed beliefs among US police advisers based on the universality of American democracy. This study also shows how notions borrowed from academic social science of the time became the basis for building Diem's internal security forces. This book will be of great interest to all students and scholars of intelligence studies, Cold War studies, security studies, US foreign policy and the Vietnam War in general.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Most Christians live in two worlds-their faith and their work. The work world is generally hostile to living out faith at work, and the church discourages or neglects the marketplace gifts and talents of its body. Faith is not accepted in business, and business is not accepted in ministry. The result is that marketplace Christians feel they lack eternal purpose, while ministry lacks needed resources to accomplish God's work. Biznistry merges Christian ministry and best business practices to create a new kind of organization with a Christ-centered work environment, right in the midst of the general marketplace. This book challenges individuals, organizations and churches to stretch the boundaries of their faith, embracing business talents as God-given gifts to be used by Him and for Him. Written by an entrepreneurial church pastor and a Harvard businessman, this practical book is filled with real-life examples of lives transformed through Christ-centered enterprise.…
