Terrorism and War

by Howard Zinn
ebook
Read a sample Read a sample
New interviews conducted since the tragic events of September 11 and the bombing campaign against Afghanistan, Terrorism and War provides Zinn?s most up-to-date thinking on war, terrorism, and the new global order. Truth, Zinn shows us, has indeed been the first casualty of war, starting from the beginnings of American empire in the Spanish-American War. But war has many other casualties, he argues, including civil liberties on the home front and human rights abroad. In Terrorism and War Zinn explores the growth of the American empire, as well as the long tradition of resistance in this country to U.S. militarism, from Eugene Debs and the Socialist Party during World War One to the opponents of U.S. military intervention in Afghanistan today. Howard Zinn may be America?s most articulate historian of the Left, whose life-long study of the purposes and outcomes of war has been among his most luminous contributions to our ongoing democratic conversation. Formerly a bombardier in World War Two, Zinn has spent decades contrasting the rhetoric governments use to justify wars and the reality of their impact, especially on the civilians who are increasingly the victims of military conflicts. Edited by Anthony Arnove Anthony Arnove is publisher and an editor at South End Press in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and an adjunct professor at Rhode Island College. He is the editor of Iraq Under Siege: The Deadly Impact of Sanctions and War. An activist based in Providence, Rhode Island, he is a member of the International Socialist Organization and the National Writers Union.
