Drawing on both wartime discourse about women and the voices of individual women living at the Italian Front, Allison Belzer analyzes how women participated in the Great War and how it affected them. Because of the Great War, many women seized the opportunity to participate in a society that continued to recognize them as guardians of the nation.
After nearly two decades of American hegemony, the balance of power is back as a key force in international politics. This timely book explores the key role that leaders play in the formation of effective balances of power. Using the years before World War II as an example, this book argues that it is not enough to just build weapons in the face a rising danger. The secret is to build the right weapons. Leaders have to make the call. British leaders in the 1930s fell short. Will today''s leaders do any better?
