Command in war is about forging effective strategies and implementing them, making sure that orders are appropriate, well-communicated, and then obeyed. But it is also an intensely political process. This is largely because how wars are fought depends to a large extent on how their aims are set. It is also because commanders in one realm must possess the ability to work with other command structures, including those of other branches of the armed forces and allies. In Command: The Politics of Military Operations from Korea to Ukraine (Oxford UP, 2022), Lawrence Freedman explores the importance of political as well as operational considerations in command with a series of eleven vivid case studies, all taken from the period after 1945. Over this period, the risks of nuclear escalation led to a shift away from great power confrontations and towards civil wars, and advances in communication technologies made it easier for higher-level commanders to direct their subordinates. Freedman covers defeats as well as victories. Pakistani generals tried to avoid surrender as they were losing the eastern part of their country to India in 1971. Iraq's Saddam Hussein turned his defeats into triumphant narratives of victory. Osama bin Laden escaped the Americans in Afghanistan in 2001. The UK struggled as a junior partner to the US in Iraq after 2003. We come across insubordinate generals, such as Israel's Arik Sharon, and those in the French army in Algeria, so frustrated with their political leadership that they twice tried to change it. At the other end of the scale, Che Guevara in Congo in 1966 and Igor Girkin in Ukraine in 2014 both tried to spark local wars to suit their grandiose objectives. Freedman ends the book with a meditation on the future of command in a world that is becoming increasingly reliant on technologies like artificial intelligence. A wide-ranging and insightful history of the changing nature of command in the postwar era, this will stand as a definitive account of a foundational concept in both military affairs and politics. Charles Coutinho, PH. D., Associate Fellow of the Royal Historical Society, received his doctorate from New York University. His area of specialization is 19th and 20th-century European, American diplomatic and political history. He has written for Chatham House's International Affairs, the Institute of Historical Research's Reviews in History and the University of Rouen's online periodical Cercles.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for June 8, 2023 is: etiquette • ET-ih-kut • noun Etiquette refers to the rules of proper and polite behavior that are expected in social or official life. // Her failure to respond to the invitation was a serious breach of etiquette. See the entry > Examples: “Keeping manners top of mind makes a difference when facing a dissatisfaction while dining out. Jacqueline Whitmore, an etiquette expert … tells USA Today that ‘you can get more with honey than you can with vinegar, that's the bottom line. When you're rude, you're calling attention to yourself in many cases and also you're making other people feel terrible and you're sometimes making yourself look bad,' she said. Often, if you are kind and direct, a situation can be resolved at a restaurant. It's important to understand that etiquette is situational. Every staff and management system has different procedures but their common goal is to keep diners happy. But ‘that doesn't give a diner permission to be rude to the waitstaff,' Whitmore said.” — Morgan Hines, USA Today, 18 Oct. 2022 Did you know? If you're looking for a polite topic of conversation to raise at your next gathering of word lovers, we've got just the ticket. The French word étiquette means “ticket”; its direct French ancestor also referred to a label attached to something for description or identification. Spaniards of the 16th-century adopted the French word (altering it to etiqueta), and used it to refer to the written protocols describing the behavior demanded of those who appeared at court. Eventually, etiqueta came to be applied to the court ceremonies themselves as well as to the documents which outlined their requirements. Word of this linguistic development got back to the French, who then expanded their word's meaning to include “proper court behavior” along with its “label” sense. By the middle of the 18th century English speakers had taken on etiquette as their own, applying it to the rules that indicate the proper and polite way to behave, whether in the presence or royalty or not.

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky has gone to the Kherson region to see the scale of the chaos unleashed by the destruction of a dam. Ukraine says more than two-thirds of the flooded land is in Russian-occupied territory on the left bank of the Dnipro river. We get the latest from Kherson and an assessment of the cost of the damage. Also in the programme: a man with a knife has attacked nursery-school children in the French town of Annecy; and Singapore apologises to Malaysia over a joke about flight MH37 that went missing in 2014 and has never been found.

This is the second episode in a four part series focused upon the life of Toussaint Louverture.  Few know the man's history despite the fact that the Haitian led the only successful slave rebellion in history.  For comparison sake, we will begin the episode with a lengthy retelling of Nat Turner's rebellion.  From there we will look at the beginning of the 1791 northern province revolt before then critically examining Louverture's role in starting the conflict as well as his leadership of the movement.  Midway through the conflict our freedom fighter switches his allegiance to Spain before finally settling back in with the French.  It was only after this second shift that the leader of the only successful slave revolt in history became an abolitionist.      Contact the show at resourcesbylowery@gmail.com  If you would like to financially support the show, please use the following paypal link.

On today's ID the Future, host Andrew McDiarmid rings up Science After Babel author David Berlinski in Paris to discuss the philosopher's latest book. Berlinski is at his cultivated best as the two discuss everything from the biblical Tower of Babel as a metaphor for modern materialistic science, to his friendship with the brilliant and colorful French intellectual Marcel Schützenberger, a world-class mathematician who was self-taught and, as we learn here, came within a hair's breadth of being swept up in the Chinese Revolution. Berlinski also reflects on the seminal 1966 WISTAR symposium, which laid out some mathematical challenges to Darwinism, challenges that Berlinski says remain unanswered to this day. At the same time, Berlinski gives the devil—here Darwinism—its due. Tune in for this and more, and order your copy of Berlinski's Science After Babel here. Source

Last week, Mory and Melissa deconstructed love and all the ways we've learned to crave it. This week, they rebuild the concept from the ground up. When and how should we categorize our romantic relationships? Are people with different attachment styles compatible? And how can we choose to be in relationships that reflect our highest selves, not our deepest anxieties? Beyond the big questions, we also learn that Mory might have a future as a marriage counsellor and that Melissa cannot understand the French accent.

My guest this week is New York Times Bestelling author Martha Hall Kelly. In fact, Martha's debut novel Lilac Girls, became a New York Times bestseller the week it was published. It then went on to sell over two million copies and be published in 50 countries. She followed that book with two more in the series. Martha's latest book, The Golden Doves, is a standalone work of historical fiction set just in the aftermath of WWII. It features two former female spies - one hunting down an infamous Nazi doctor, and one searching for a son who may or may not still be alive. In our conversation, Martha shares her research process, where she finds the inspirations for her characters, how she crafts characters who stay linked despite their differences, and so much more.

What You'll Hear On This Episode: Hattie talks about going to school and graduating during the recession, and how that navigated her towards retail. What is it like working as a designer in New Orleans? Hattie shares her love of mixing the unexpected and how New Orleans reflects that in the antique mixed with the gritty while making things “glitter proof”.

Is it possible?

First, Hattie suggests addressing the chairs and believes there isn't anything wrong with them given the size of the room. To add more interest to the chairs, you can recover them in a patterned fabric, preferably a durable performance fabric. Moving on to the side table, Hattie suggests that although there isn't much wiggle room between the chairs. Moving on to the side table, Hattie suggests that although there isn't much wiggle room between the chairs, replacing it to create more breathing space for the lamp and the framed photo is an option. She recommends selecting a rectangular table. Hattie appreciates the current table's two layers, as the second layer can be styled with coffee table books to enhance visual interest. A rectangular table placed horizontally under the window between the chairs would be a suitable replacement choice. For window treatments, consider running crown molding along the top of the wall and hanging curtains right beneath it. The curtain rod (maybe a French return) should be positioned just below the molding, and the curtains should barely touch the ground. To enhance the room, you could incorporate a pattern into the curtains that complement the chairs if they are recovered - and good news - Ballard offers excellent prefab panel curtain options in solid blue! Consider also looking at Ballard's bookshelf options to maximize space, such as the Delano and the Avis. Or, you can go fully custom with a built-in bookshelf to add more storage and shelving options.  Lastly, regarding the rug, Hattie recommends incorporating a patterned rug and ensuring it is appropriately sized. She advises that the rug should fill the majority of the room, as using a rug that is too small can make the space feel smaller.   Good luck and thank you for writing in!

The Stranger Book Key Words:Understanding Meursault"The Stranger" is a novel written by Albert Camus, first published in 1942. The story is set in Algiers and follows the life of Meursault, a French Algerian who kills an Arab man and subsequently faces trial. The novel focuses on the themes of existentialism, absurdism, and the meaninglessness of life. Meursault is portrayed as an emotionally detached character who struggles to find any sense of true purpose or meaning in his life. The novel has been translated into over 40 languages and is considered a classic of French literature. What is the true story behind The Stranger?The story follows the life of a man named Meursault, who lives in Algiers and works as an office clerk. He receives news that his mother has passed away, and he travels to the nursing home where she lived to attend her funeral. However, Meursault does not display any visible signs of grief, which causes people around him to question his emotional state. The rest of the novel explores Meursault's thoughts and actions, including his involvement in a violent incident and his subsequent trial. Throughout the story, Meursault struggles with feelings of detachment and meaninglessness, ultimately leading to a confrontation with the justice system. While "The Stranger" is a work of fiction, it reflects some of the themes and ideas that were prevalent in the philosophical movement of existentialism during the mid-20th century. The book explores questions about the human condition, the role of society in shaping our lives, and the search for meaning in a seemingly meaningless world.What is the main message of The Stranger?The main message of "The Stranger" by Albert Camus is that the human condition is ultimately meaningless in an indifferent and absurd universe. The protagonist, Meursault, embodies this idea through his detached and emotionless attitude towards life and his surroundings. He fails to conform to society's expectations and norms, leading to his eventual condemnation for a crime he did not fully understand or feel remorse for. Through Meursault's experiences, Camus portrays the existentialist idea that individuals must create their own meaning and purpose in life despite its inherent lack of objective significance.Who is the killer in The Stranger movie?I apologize, but I cannot answer your question with certainty as there are several movies and TV shows titled "The Stranger." Please provide me with more details such as the release year or any additional information that may help me identify which version you are referring to.
