    Content: This anthology is the first sustained examination of American involvement in World War II through an environmental lens. World War II was a total and global war that involved the extraction, processing, and use of vast quantities of natural resources. The wartime military-industrial complex, the 'Arsenal of Democracy,' experienced tremendous economic growth and technological development, employing resources at a higher intensity than ever before. The war years witnessed transformations in American agriculture; the proliferation of militarized landscapes; the popularization of chemical and pharmaceutical products; a rapid increase in energy consumption and the development of nuclear energy; a remaking of the nation's transportation networks; a shift in population toward the Sunbelt and the West Coast; a vast expansion in the federal government, in conjunction with industrial firms; and the emergence of environmentalism. World War II represented a quantitative and qualitative leap in resource use, with lasting implications for American government, science, society, health, and ecology

    Content: Culture has an enormous influence on military organizations and their success or failure in war. Cultural biases often result in unstated assumptions that have a deep impact on the making of strategy, operational planning, doctrinal creation, and the organization and training of armed forces. Except in unique circumstances culture grows slowly, embedding so deeply that members often act unconsciously according to its dictates. Of all the factors that are involved in military effectiveness, culture is perhaps the most important. Yet, it also remains the most difficult to describe and understand, because it entails so many external factors that impinge, warp, and distort its formation and continuities. The sixteen case studies in this volume examine the culture of armies, navies, and air forces from the Civil War to the Iraq War and how and why culture affected their performance in the ultimate arbitration of war.

    Content: Der Sammelband thematisiert Fragen der Organisationskultur und Strategischen Kultur verschiedener neuzeitlicher Streitkräfte rund um den Globus. Die Beiträge sind in vier Teilbereiche gegliedert: Teil 1 enthält zwei Aufsätze, welche den theoretischen Rahmen behandeln ("Culture and Military Organizations", "Strategic Culture"). Teil 2 widmet sich mit elf Aufsätzen den Landstreitkräften, hierin ist auch die Perspektive auf die preußisch-deutsche Militärkultur mit dem Beitrag "German Army Culture 1871-1945" vertreten. Die Teile 3 und 4 enthalten zusammen fünf Aufsätze, welche die Thematik hinsichtlich der Seestreitkräfte und Luftstreitkräfte untersuchen; hier beschränkt sich die Darstellung jeweils auf die Streitkräfte Großbritanniens und der USA.

    Content: Bündnisse haben Vorteile und Nachteile, was bekannt ist solange Bündnisse geschlossen wurden. Die Autoren dieses Bandes gehen auf diese in der Kriegsgeschichte seit den Peloponnesischen Kriegen ein. Sie untersuchen die englisch preußische Allianz der Jahre 1756-1763, die Bündnispolitik der Alliierten im Ersten und Zweiten Weltkrieg mit Schwerpunkt auf der französischen, britischen und amerikanischen Politik. Aber auch die Seestrategie der Briten und Amerikaner seit dem 18 Jahrhundert bis zum Ende des Kalten Krieges wird analysiert. Darüber hinaus wird der Golfkrieg 1990/92 unter dem Aspekt der Bündnispolitik erörtert und abschließend eine Zusammenfassung über die Vorteile und Nachteile der Bündnispolitik in der Geschichte gegeben.
