In 2011, many Syrians took to the streets of Damascus to demand the overthrow of the government of Bashar al-Assad. Today, much of Syria has become a war zone where foreign journalists find it almost impossible to report on life in this devastated land. Burning Country explores the horrific and complicated reality of life in present-day Syria with unprecedented detail and sophistication, drawing on new first hand testimonies from opposition fighters, exiles lost in an archipelago of refugee camps, and courageous human rights activists among many others.

C'è un conflitto di cui sentiamo parlare da sempre, e sempre più spesso. Una guerra che seguiamo da lontano, ma che continua a influenzare il nostro presente da vicino, perché rivela con chiarezza quanto il mondo stia attraversando una fase di profondo smarrimento. Elia Milani, corrispondente di Mediaset da Gerusalemme, lo sa bene: da otto anni descrive in diretta ciò che accade in Israele e Palestina. In questo libro, senza abbandonare lo sguardo attento del cronista, affianca al reportage un racconto più personale.

This second edition of Crisis and Crossfire traces the origins of the contemporary challenges the United States faces in the Middle East by analyzing the broad contours of U.S. policy in the region since the government's first involvement there in the 1940s.

Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman of Saudi Arabia stands as a pivotal figure in the twenty-first-century geopolitical landscape, embodying both transformative ambition and strategic acumen.

Professor Alan Dershowitz calls upon the Jewish people to rise up in order to prevent recurrences of past tragedies—to learn the lessons of tragic miscalculations, try hard to anticipate the future, and act to influence it in real time. To assure “never again,” he argues that Jews and their nation-state Israel must undertake preventative and preemptive measures and not rely only on reacting to dangers that are clear and present. Failure to see parallels to past disasters or to take preventive measures increases the likelihood of comparable horrors, currently or in the future.

American wars in Iraq were a defining feature of global politics for almost thirty years. The Gulf War of 1991, the American invasion of Iraq in 2003, and the campaign against the Islamic State beginning in 2014 each had their own logic. Each occurrence was a distinct conflict; however they must not only be considered in isolation. The United States spent the 1990s trying but failing to implement the Gulf War's cease fire agreement. After the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, American leaders decided to settle the open-ended aftermath of the Gulf War by launching the Iraq War of 2003.

El orientalismo, considerado en su generalidad, nos enfrenta a problemas que conciernen directamente a la identidad de Occidente, más allá de cualquier discurso estereotipado, en particular al deseo latente de retornar a los dominios de la irracionalidad o a la pulsión jerárquica, entrevistos en el Oriente. Al fin y al cabo, como demuestra el «orientalismo doméstico», el Oriente es parte de nosotros mismos, de nuestra imagen reflejada en el espejo de lo imaginario a través de diferentes medios expresivos, que todos han tomado la perspectiva como forma de contemplarlo en la distancia.
