商品簡介
Kan (national security studies, US Army War College) focuses on the various roles that drugs play in modern warfare, and how to address them on the battlefield and in post-conflict nation-building situations. His only concern is with drugs that are illegal in the US, not, for example with the medicine given to US soldiers to keep them awake or help them forget war crimes. His topics include drugs as war funding, drug trade as post-conflict complication, the dynamics of drug-fueled conflicts, and strategies and approaches in drug-fueled conflicts. Scholars of politics and history might find the study interesting, he says, as well as policy makers and military professionals. Distributed in the US by Books International.
