DOWNLOAD EBOOKBased on his experience as a diplomat and as political advisor to the U.S. mission to the United Nations, Jackson traces the history and development of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM), and shows it to be a Third World interest group with a fundamental impact on the structure and agenda of the United Nations. As such he views its mistrust of the West as stemming from an anti-colonial bias rather than from an inherent disposition to either East or West. He argues that the survival of the NAM in its present anti-Western mode can only be viewed as a failure of U.S. policy over the last two decades. He believes that U.S. withdrawal from the United Nations would increase global instability and supports ending direct attacks on the NAM. ISBN 0-03-062561-0 (pbk.) : $29.95.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAfghanistan a landlocked developing country, is geographically contiguous to Soviet Union, but a distant country to the United States. The analysis of relationship between a small developing country like Afghanistan and a geographically distant Super Power like the United States, presents a unique study in many respects. The analysis of Afghan-US relations has almost remained a neglected area of serious academic research. The plethora of literature available on Afghanistan has not even provided a cursory treatment to this most crucial and significant aspect. A cursory analysis of the available literature leaves many questions unanswered. Can a small country like Afghanistan be usurped by a Super Power? How the small and weak nations can survive? Will the inaction by the non-aligned movement (NAM) and the United Nations in getting the Russian aggression vacated from Afghanistan, further encourage the Russians to annex other non-aligned countries? Can United States, as a Super Power, help in restoration of the non-aligned status of Afghanistan safeguard its territorial integrity and sovereignty etc. The author has made an humble endeavour to probe all the aspects in detail in the present book. It is not only an attempt providing answers to various fundamental questions arising in the aftermath of Russian invasion of Afghanistan but also provides a detailed background of Afghanistan s relations with the United States.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK(Note for Jacket--see Marketing File-so/10/26]The vast, politically turbulent region encompassing the Indian Ocean, the Persian Gulf, forty-two littoral states, and one third of the world's population is one of the most potentially explosive theaters of superpower rivalry. In this study, three American and three Indian authors, reflecting different perspectives and areas of expertise, examine the principal factors that have led to the escalation of superpower tensions in the region: the war in Afghanistan, and its spillover into the Afghanistan-Pakistani borderlands; the Indo-Pakistani nuclear arms race; ethnic tensions in Sri Lanka; the Iran-Iraq war; Islamic fundamentalism; and the rapidly growing military presence of the superpowers in the area. Considering how India's emergence as a military power is influencing superpower and indigenous tensions in the region, the contributors compare Indian, American, and Soviet interests, and offer solutions for current Indian-American disagreements.
