This groundbreaking and innovative book is a must-read for anyone genuinely interested in teaching, the education of our children, and the future trajectory of learning procedures as a whole. Readers of philosophy will gain insights into key ancient and contemporary thinkers — such as Rousseau, Kant, Foucault, and Andy Clark — while others will be introduced to the topic from broader perspectives found in anarchism, language, psychology, rights, and feminism.
Finely crafted by a current academic researcher and espionage enthusiast, A New Vision of Spycraft provides insight into the techniques, methodologies, and attitudes characteristic of Anglo-American intelligence agencies as well as their continuing aim to be largely free of parliamentary oversight. Certainly, distinctions between desk-bound intelligence analysts and far more romantic field agents are explored, although only as a means to unearth a number of unsettling facts about this particular side of national life.
This meticulously researched volume delves into the critical moments of intelligence history, such as guerrilla warfare in the American War of Independence, the Zimmermann Telegram, the U.S. entry into World War I, and signals intelligence (SIGINT). Rahab's House of Spies further uncovers the actions of British intelligence and provides a fresh perspective on the evolving relationship between intelligence agencies and parliamentary oversight.
The Dogs of Diplomacy: Exploring the Radical Geographies of Modern Times investigates diplomacy through the lens of radical geography as a conceptual framework. Engaging with international relations theory, comparative foreign policy, and the global political economy, Daniele foregrounds postcolonial global justice and the positioning of subaltern social groups within dominant discourses of power. Grounded in his immigrant experience, Daniele’s critical qualitative research draws on literary fiction such as Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi and Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe to challenge conventional geopolitical maps.
