Athens: Monthly Review Imprint /Ellenika Grammata, 2005 Book. Very Good. French Wraps. 1st Greek Edition.. Translation Michael Panagiotakis, Nikos Papapolyzos. "The "Vietnam Syndrome" has had a major impact on US foreign policy for more than 25 years. The first Gulf War, the interventions in Yugoslavia and the rapid victories in Afghanistan and Iraq gave the impression that this syndrome had been finally overcome. However, the situation has changed and the question marks have begun to increase. Will Iraq become a second Vietnam? Can the US wage continuous wars in the future? How will the weak resist the powerful? The authors of this book provide some first answers to these questions. Questions that will concern us all in the future"126p. [NO copies in WorldCat].
