Transforming the War on Drugs
The war on drugs has failed, but consensus in the international drug policy debate on the way forward is missing. Amidst this moment of uncertainty, militarised lenses on the global illicit drug problem continue to neglect the complexity of the causes and consequences that this war is intended to defend or defeat. Challenging conventional thinking in defence and security sectors, Transforming the War on Drugs constitutes the first comprehensive and systematic effort to theoretically, conceptually, and empirically investigate the impacts of the war on drugs. The contributors trace the consequences of the war on drugs across vulnerable regions, including South America and Central America, West...

America's Man on Horseback
An inflammatory, politically incorrect book- humor to those who think, horror to those who feel. Guy Odom uses history to predict that social conditions such as drunk driving, education decline, illegal drug use, crime, corrupt politics, financial scams, inflation, race riots, and foreign terrorism will worsen ten times by 2013. This makes a dictator, a "man on horseback" to rein in an out-of-control nation, plausible and perhaps attractive- a historically sound proposition, but a first for America. Odom offers no suggestions to correct today's social ills. Instead, he applies his own brand of Machiavellian and Swiftian logic in writing to the future "man on horseback." He delineates the causes of America's decline, the offers America's "man on horseback" ideas to "clean up the mess" and build an American Empire. This book is sure to awaken dormant thoughts of unease brought about by the decadence and corruption narcotizing our nation and to offer a catharsis to those harmed by current conditions. Outrageous? Yes. Boring? No.
