Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Proxy warfare allows major powers to advance strategic interests, test military capabilities, and weaken rivals without direct confrontation that risks nuclear escalation or domestic political backlash. This comprehensive analysis examines how superp…owers have manipulated regional conflicts across seven decades-from Korea and Vietnam through Afghanistan and Angola to Syria and Yemen-exploring the mechanisms of indirect warfare, the consequences for proxy states, and why this strategy persists despite its destabilizing effects.Drawing on declassified documents, military analyses, diplomatic cables, and regional histories, this book reveals how powers select and support proxies, what they provide beyond weapons and funding, and how proxy relationships evolve from alignment to autonomy or abandonment. It explores the asymmetry between sponsors' limited commitments and proxies' existential stakes, how regional conflicts become internationalized, and the humanitarian costs of prolonged warfare fueled by external support.The narrative examines patterns across conflicts while respecting local agency and specific contexts, analyzing how proxy wars serve great power competition, how they destabilize regions long after sponsors lose interest, and what intervention reveals about international law's limitations. It addresses the difficulty of ending proxy conflicts, the legacy of weapons proliferation, and how external support prolongs wars that might otherwise reach negotiated settlements. This work provides rigorous analysis of indirect warfare's strategic logic and human consequences.
