This book offers a multi-disciplinary and multi-national approach to defining key elements required to define power within the maritime domain.

No Brasil, a história marítima e naval conhece uma longa tradição. A civilização brasileira, nascida do encontro de caravelas portuguesas com navios negreiros em um litoral de dimensões continentais, mas já povoado por outras culturas e gentes, fez-se pela travessia do mar. Aliadas, essas circunstâncias naturais e históricas foram determinantes e certamente lastrearam o vigor intelectual dos estudos navais brasileiros. Organizado pelo almirante Armando Vidigal e pelo comandante Francisco Eduardo Alves de Almeida, dois homens da Armada estudiosos da história marítima e naval brasileira, Guerra no mar atualiza e acrescenta novos elementos a essa robusta tradição. Sete professores...

The Falklands/Malvinas War in the South Atlantic

This book explores the Falklands War from an Argentinian perspective, taking into consideration three aspects. First, it introduces classified documents after the end of the thirty-year ban. Second, it highlights various conceptual, institutional, and doctrinal reforms in the Argentinian and other South American armed forces as a result of lessons learned from the Malvinas War. Third, it reflects on the war's long-term implications on Argentina’s foreign policy and society. The book offers the first comprehensive, multi-level analysis, and Argentinian scholarship on the conflict. It is based on original primary data, mainly official documentation and interviews with military officers and combatants.

O diplomata e internacionalista João Paulo Soares Alsina Júnior revisa, nesta obra, a imagem de 'pacifista' ligada ao barão do Rio-Branco e apresenta um novo perfil do patrono da diplomacia brasileira - o de um homem pragmático e consciente da importância do uso do poder militar na proteção dos interesses brasileiros. Contrariando a figura registrada pela historiografia oficialista, Alsina Júnior mostra que "Rio-Branco era um realista da melhor escola bismarckiana", pois sempre associou o êxito da ação diplomática a uma prévia avaliação da correlação de forças e a uma bem calibrada ameaça do uso do poder militar.
