The effects of what historians call the ";General Crisis"; extended from England to Japan, from the Russian Empire to sub-Saharan Africa. The Americas, too, did not escape the turbulence of the time. In this meticulously researched volume, master historian Geoffrey Parker presents the firsthand testimony of men and women who saw and suffered from the sequence of political, economic, and social crises between 1618 to the late 1680's. Parker also deploys the scientific evidence of climate change during this period. His discoveries revise entirely our understanding of the General Crisis: changes in prevailing weather patterns, especially longer winters and cooler and wetter summers, disrupted growing seasons and destroyed harvests. This in turn brought hunger, malnutrition, and disease; and as material conditions worsened, wars, rebellions, and revolutions rocked the world. Parker's demonstration of the link between climate change, war, and catastrophe 350 years ago stands as an extraordinary historical achievement. And the implications of his study are equally important: are we adequately prepared-or even preparing-for the catastrophes that climate change brings? 606 $aHistory, Modern$y17th century 606 $aMilitary history$y17th century 606 $aCivil war$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aRevolutions$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aClimatic changes$xSocial aspects$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aDisasters$xHistory$y17th century 615 0$aHistory, Modern 615 0$aMilitary history 615 0$aCivil war$xHistory 615 0$aRevolutions$xHistory 615 0$aClimatic changes$xSocial aspects$xHistory 615 0$aDisasters$xHistory 676 $a909.6 700 $aParker$b Geoffrey$f1933-$0923222 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910967188503321 996 $aGlobal crisis$94362961 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03343oam 2200589I 450 001 9911026148403321 005 20241113174134.0 010 $a9780300265132$b(electronic bk.) 010 $a0300265131$belectronic book 010 $z9780300253443$bhardcover 024 7 $a10.12987/9780300265132 035 $a(OCoLC)1293455918 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6869430 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL6869430 035 $a(CKB)20957446400041 035 $a(OCoLC)1293455918 035 $a(OCoLC-P)1293455918 035 $a(MiAaJST)10.2307/j.ctv28bqm27 035 $a(DE-B1597)619224 035 $a(DE-B1597)9780300265132 035 $a(PPN)260902535 035 $a(EXLCZ)9920957446400041 100 $a20250630d2022 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 14$aThe weaponisation of everything $ea field guide to the new way of war /$fMark Galeotti 205 $a1st ed. 210 1$aNew Haven$cYale University Press$d2022 215 $a1 online resource (viii, 235 pages) 300 $aGOBI 311 08$aPrint version: Galeotti, Mark The Weaponisation of Everything New Haven : Yale University Press,c2022 9780300253443 327 $tFrontmatter --$tContents --$tIntroduction --$t1 The Renaissance of Weaponisation --$tPART I Ain?t Gonna Study (Shooting) War No More --$t2 The Deweaponisation of Warfare? --$t3 Soldiering-plus and Gig Geopolitics --$tPART II Business, and Other Crimes --$t4 Business --$t5 Buying Friends and Influencing People --$t6 Crime --$tPART III War is All Around Us --$t7 Life --$t8 Law --$t9 Information --$t10 Culture --$tPART IV Welcome to the Future --$t11 Weaponised Instability --$t12 Learning to Love the Permanent, Bloodless War --$tIndex 330 8 $aHybrid War, Grey Zone Warfare, Unrestricted War: today, traditional conflict-fought with guns, bombs, and drones-has become too expensive to wage, too unpopular at home, and too difficult to manage. In an age when America threatens Europe with sanctions, and when China spends billions buying influence abroad, the world is heading for a new era of permanent low-level conflict, often unnoticed, undeclared, and unending.0Transnational crime expert Mark Galeotti provides a comprehensive and ground-breaking survey of the new way of war. Ranging across the globe, Galeotti shows how today's conflicts are fought with everything from disinformation and espionage to crime and subversion, leading to instability within countries and a legitimacy crisis across the globe. But rather than suggest that we hope for a return to a bygone era of "stable" warfare, Galeotti details ways of surviving, adapting, and taking advantage of the opportunities presented by this new reality. 606 $aMilitary art and science 606 $aWorld politics 606 $aWar 608 $aElectronic Books$2FBC 615 0$aMilitary art and science. 615 0$aWorld politics. 615 0$aWar. 676 $a355.02 686 $a355.02$2z 700 $aGaleotti$b Mark$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0681454 701 $aGaleotti$b Mark$0681454 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 912 $a9911026148403321 996 $aThe weaponisation of everything$94433020 997 $aUNINA
