From Byron to bin Laden
Author: Nir Arielli
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674982231
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 305
Book Description
What makes people fight and risk their lives for countries other than their own? Why did diverse individuals such as Lord Byron, George Orwell, Che Guevara, and Osama bin Laden all volunteer for ostensibly foreign causes? Nir Arielli helps us understand this perplexing phenomenon with a wide-ranging history of foreign-war volunteers, from the wars of the French Revolution to the civil war in Syria. Challenging narrow contemporary interpretations of foreign fighters as a security problem, Arielli opens up a broad range of questions about individuals’ motivations and their political and social context, exploring such matters as ideology, gender, international law, military significance, and the memory of war. He shows that even though volunteers have fought for very different causes, they share a number of characteristics. Often driven by a personal search for meaning, they tend to superimpose their own beliefs and perceptions on the wars they join. They also serve to internationalize conflicts not just by being present at the front but by making wars abroad matter back at home. Arielli suggests an innovative way of distinguishing among different types of foreign volunteers, examines the mixed reputation they acquire, and provides the first in-depth comparative analysis of the military roles that foreigners have played in several conflicts. Merging social, cultural, military, and diplomatic history, From Byron to bin Laden is the most comprehensive account yet of a vital, enduring, but rarely explored feature of warfare past and present.

Book Description
As hockey's toughest enforcer, I've spent my entire career dropping gloves and racking up minutes in the sin bin. But nothing has ever sent me to the penalty box faster than one reckless, hot as hell night with my publicist. Sleeping with Zoe Mackenzie didn't just decimate our professional relationship, it shattered us, too. Now I'm living in a new city, playing for a new team, and staring down the barrel of the Blades' final ultimatum: Fix my bad boy reputation or kiss my stick goodbye. Then I walk into my new PR firm and see her sitting behind the desk. The one woman who hates my guts. The same woman I've spent the last year unable to forget. And now she has the power to get me benched for good. Zoe: F*ck my life. SIN BIN is a second chance/enemies-to-lovers romance. It's the second book in the Blades Hockey series but can be read as a standalone. If you like your book boyfriends hot as puck, then Sin Bin will definitely be your jam.
