AFRICOM: The Pentagon's First Direct Military Intervention In Africa

28-08-2009 10:23 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Globalisation | World

While conducting wars, bombings, military interventions and invasions in Latin America and the Caribbean, Asia, the Middle East and recently Southeastern Europe over the past half century, the Pentagon has left the African continent comparatively unscathed.

27-08-2009 07:48 | Analysis | Globalisation | Repression | World

Arguably, through party politics and financial-corporate interests, democracy is something of a façade as it is. However, we are entering into an era in which even the institutions and image of democracy are in retreat, and the slide into totalitarianism seems inevitable.

Controlling the Global Economy: Bilderberg, the Trilateral Commission and the Federal Reserve

21-08-2009 19:33 | Analysis | Globalisation | Repression | World

The 1990s saw the emergence of what was called the New World Order. This was a term that emerged in the early 1990s to describe a more unipolar world, addressing the collapse of the Soviet Union and the newfound role of the United States as the sole and unchallenged global power.

The New World Order was meant to represent a new phase in the global political economy in which world authority rested in one place, and for the time, that place was to be the United States.

16-08-2009 08:31 | Anti-militarism | Globalisation | Terror War | World

In May 2008, the United States Army War College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, hosted "Unified Quest 2008," the army's annual war games to test the American military's ability to deal with the kind of crises that it might face in the near future.

Latin America: Social Movements in Times of Economic Crises

15-08-2009 21:03 | Globalisation | Social Struggles | Workers' Movements | World

The most striking aspect of the prolonged and deepening world recession/depression is the relative and absolute passivity of the working and middle class in the face of massive job losses, big cuts in wages, health care and pension payments and mounting housing foreclosures. Never in the history of the 20-21st Century has an economic crisis caused so much loss to so many workers, employees, small businesses, farmers and professionals with so little large-scale public protest.

The Pentagon's 21st Century Counterinsurgency Wars: Latin America and South Asia

10-08-2009 15:31 | Anti-militarism | Globalisation | Social Struggles | World

Coups and counterinsurgencies engineered and supported by Washington are no longer relics of the past century. Coups of the Georgian variety and its offshoots or of the Honduran model and Vietnam-style counterinsurgency wars have been reactivated as foreign policy options of choice.
