Stephen P. Reyna argues that contemporary forms of violence exercised by American elites in the colonies, client state, and regions of interest have deferred imperial problems, but not without raising their own set of deadly contradictions. This book can be read many ways: as a polemic against geopolitics, as a classic social anthropological text, or as a seminal analysis of twenty-four US global wars during the Cold War and post-Cold War eras.   606 $aWorld politics$y1945-1989 606 $aWorld politics$y1989- 606 $aWar and society 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$y1945-1989 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$y1989- 607 $aUnited States$xMilitary policy 615 0$aWorld politics 615 0$aWorld politics 615 0$aWar and society. 676 $a327.7300904 700 $aReyna$b Stephen P.$0938438 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910735300403321 996 $aDeadly contradictions$92615596 997 $aUNINA
