But what kind of war would it be, how would it be fought, for how long, and what would it cost in lives and money? None of this was known at the time. What came to be known was that the old ways of war must change—but how? Now, with over a decade of political decision-making and warfighting to analyze, How 9/11 Changed Our Ways of War addresses that question. In particular it assesses how well those ways of war, adapted to fight terrorism, affect our military capacity to protect and sustain liberal democratic values. The book pursues three themes: what shaped the strategic choice to go to war; what force was used to wage the war; and what resources were needed to carry on the fight? In each case, military effectiveness required new and strict limits on the justification, use, and support of force. How to identify and observe these limits is a matter debated by the various contributors. Their debate raises questions about waging future wars—including how to defend against and control the use of drones, cyber warfare, and targeted assassinations. The contributors include historians, political scientists, and sociologists; both academics and practitioners.Military art and scienceUnited StatesMilitary art and scienceSeptember 11 Terrorist Attacks, 2001InfluenceUnited StatesMilitary policyElectronic books.Military art and scienceMilitary art and science.September 11 Terrorist Attacks, 2001Influence.355/.033573Burk James1948-149160MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910462984803321How 92488910UNINA03555nam 22006855 450 991025506240332120251030105709.09781137489920113748992810.1057/978-1-137-48992-0(CKB)3710000001184549(DE-He213)978-1-137-48992-0(MiAaPQ)EBC4851834(Perlego)3507958(EXLCZ)99371000000118454920170429d2017 u| 0engurnn|008mamaatxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierBritish Women Film Directors in the New Millennium /by Stella Hockenhull1st ed. 2017.London :Palgrave Macmillan UK :Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan,2017.1 online resource (XI, 264 p. 5 illus. in color.) 9781137489913 113748991X Includes bibliographical references and index.Introduction -- Women and British cinema funding: from the UKFC to creative England -- Women directors and documentary cinema -- Women directors and poetic realism -- Popular cinema from a female perspective -- Alternatives to mainstream and classic modes of narration -- Conclusion.This book focuses on the output of women film directors in the period post Millennium when the number of female directors working within the film industry rose substantially. Despite the fact that nationally and internationally women film directors are underrepresented within the industry, there is a wealth of talent currently working in Britain. During the early part of the 2000s, the UKFC instigated policies and strategies for gender equality and since then the British Film Institute has continued to encourage diversity. British Women Directors in the New Millennium therefore examines the production, distribution and exhibition of female directors’ work in light of policy. The book is divided into two sections: part one includes a historical background of women directors working in the twentieth century before discussing the various diversity funding opportunities available since 2000. The second part of the book examines the innovation, creativity and resourcefulness of British female film directors, as well as the considerable variety of films that they produce, selecting specific examples for analysis in the process. .EthnologyGreat BritainCultureSexMotion picturesProduction and directionMotion picture industryTelevision broadcastingMotion picturesGreat BritainBritish CultureGender StudiesDirectingFilm and Television IndustryBritish Film and TVEthnologyCulture.Sex.Motion picturesProduction and direction.Motion picture industry.Television broadcasting.Motion picturesBritish Culture.Gender Studies.Directing.Film and Television Industry.British Film and TV.306.0941Hockenhull Stellaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut885100BOOK9910255062403321British Women Film Directors in the New Millennium2536807UNINA
