American Soldiers Overseas pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
Over the past 60 years, the US armed forces have created a web of military bases all over the world, from Australia to Iceland to Saudi Arabia. This is the aspect of military service that the majority of soldiers know and remember. Interaction between US personnel and local populations is almost a given, and it is inevitable that the American and host communities will influence each other in numerous ways. This book looks at the history and impact of American military communities overseas. It discusses how U.S. bases affected economic and political life in the host communities, how host societies shape the profile and activities of military communities, and what happens when relations break down. Through case studies of communities around the world, Baker shows that the US armed forces have had a surprisingly large impact - both positive and negative - on the affairs of many host societies, including economic revitalization, cultural change, and, sometimes, tragic social consequences.
