商品簡介
This volume collects 34 articles from a broad array of mainstream periodical sources that are intended to provide students with a starting point for thinking about the 2010-2011 debate topic of the National Forensics League, which is formulated thusly: "Resolved: The United States federal government should substantially reduce its military and/or police presence in one or more the following: South Korea, Japan, Afghanistan, Kuwait, Iraq, Turkey." The articles present contending views, from neoconservative to left-liberal, on the impact of the US military presence overseas and are organized into sections focusing on general issues of the US global military footprint, Afghanistan, Iraq, Turkey, Japan, and South Korea. Also included is a bibliographic guide to relevant books, web sites, and additional periodical articles (including abstracts). Annotation c2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
