Rezension zu „The Good War “
'At a time when innumerable newspaper articles, journal essays and political speeches have added more heat than light to the NATO intervention in Afghanistan, M.J. Williams gives answers with real expertise, the right historical perspective and a sound political judgement. Based on extensive research and interviews with key players on both sides of the Atlantic, this book is essential reading for anyone, layman or strategist, who wants to understand what is really at stake for the Western democracies in Afghanistan.' - Dr Jamie Shea, Director of Policy Planning, NATO HQ 'Engaging and illuminating, Williams offers an original and stimulating take on NATO's evolution and the liberal conscience while at the same time delivering a serious reality check to advocates of democratic imperialism.' - Professor Christopher Coker, London School of Economics'An excellent and comprehensive treatment of the topic.' - Conor Foley, author of The Thin Blue Line: How Humanitarianism Went to War
