House, JonathanA MILITARY HISTORY OF THE NEW WORLD DISORDER: 1989-2022 The collapse of the Soviet Union in 1989 freed the world of the political and military perils and imperatives of the Cold War, but it also introduced a whole new constellation of risks and challenges. Focuses largely but not exclusively on the US to survey subsequent developments in military strategy and operations-the processes by which politicians and military leaders of the major powers designed, organized, resourced, and then employed military forces to conduct or deter conflicts. Overview ranges from conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan to American interventions in Panama, Somalia, former Yugoslavia, and Haiti; Israel vs. Hezbollah in Lebanon; and the resurgence of the Russian military in Syria, Georgia, and Ukraine. Provides analysis of recent military developments, including the strengths and weaknesses of employing precision-guided munitions, counterinsurgency techniques, and other controversial methods of current warfare. Reveals the complex relationship between national political decisions to commit armed forces to conflicts and the results on the battlefield, and offers a timely perspective on military power and practice in the current day.
