60 YEARS ISRAEL NAVY
A comprehensive look at the history of the Israel Navy, from its inception in the early 1930’s through its 60th anniversary in 2008. Organized chronologically, the book covers all aspects of the Israel Navy’s history, including equipment, peacetime and wartime operations, organizational and conceptual development, changing roles and missions, as well as distinguished personnel. Going far beyond mere naval or maritime aspects, the author also sketches the historical development of Israel’s ongoing conflict with both the Palestinians and its neighbouring Arab states.
Combined Arms Warfare in Israeli Military History
Combined arms warfare (CAW) -- the integration of different arms on the battlefield (e.g., armor, infantry, artillery, aircraft, and engineers) in order to achieve maximal efficiency there -- is as old as war itself. Every army across both time and space that has engaged in combat has practiced one version or another of CAW, whether consciously or otherwise. The Israel Defenxse Forces (IDF) has been no exception to the rule. This book traces the Israeli experience with CAW from the countrys War of Independence in 194749 (against a coalition of Arab states) through Operation Protective Edge in 2014 (against a coalition of Hamas-led terrorist/insurgent groups). It describes and analyzes the ID...
Understanding Naval Warfare
This new and updated edition of Understanding Naval Warfare offers the reader an accessible introduction to the study of modern naval warfare, providing a thorough grounding in the vocabulary, concepts, issues, and debates, set within the context of relevant history. Navies operate in an environment that most people do not understand and that many avoid. They are equipped with a bewildering range of ships, craft and other vessels and types of equipment, the purpose of which is often unclear. Writings on naval warfare are usually replete with references to esoteric concepts explained in specialist language than can serve as a barrier to understanding. The objective of this book, therefore, is...
Geschichte und Gesetzmässigkeiten
Die Frage nach Gesetzmässigkeiten innerhalb der Geschichte gerät im Verständnis der zugrundegelegten Wissenschaftstheorie für die Historie zur Legitimationsfrage schlechthin. Über eine Apologie der Geschichte hinaus wird das Mass an Sinnstiftung abgesteckt, das durch Sozialwissenschaften geleistet werden kann. Die vorliegende Arbeit bewegt sich im Grenzbereich zwischen Geschichte und Soziologie und versteht sich als Absage an den Historismus. Stattdessen werden Kategorien einer erklärenden Historie entwickelt und der Versuch unternommen, deren nomologischen Anspruch einzulösen mit Hilfe der beiden Soziologen Pareto und Elias.
The Fateful Alliance
On 30 January 1933, Alfred Hugenberg's conservative German National People's Party (DNVP) formed a coalition government with the Nazi Party, thus enabling Hitler to accede to the chancellorship. This book analyzes in detail the complicated relationship between Conservatives and Nazis and offers a re-interpretation of the Nazi seizure of power - the decisive months between 30 January and 14 July 1933. The Machtergreifung is characterized here as a period of all-pervasive violence and lawlessness with incessant conflicts between Nazis and German Nationals and Nazi attacks on the conservative Bürgertum, a far cry from the traditional depiction of the takeover as a relatively bloodless, virtual...
