How the Weak Win Wars

Beschreibung

How do the weak defeat the strong? In this 2005 book, Ivan Arreguà n-Toft argues that although many factors affect asymmetric conflict outcomes, the interaction of each actor's strategy is the best explanation. This book has implications for scholars of international relations, and policy makers grappling with interstate and civil wars, as well as terrorism.

Rezensionen

'Arreguín-Toft has made a major contribution to the literature on a fascinating and very timely subject. How the Weak Win Wars should be required reading not only for International Relations scholars but also for would be US presidents who still do not grasp the limits of American military power now on display in Iraq.'
