The Nisibis War is now available for most book merchants.
The Nisibis War CE 337-363 provides the first campaign analysis of this important conflict between the Roman Empire and the Sassanid Kingdom. Thanks to the availability of primary sources, the Nisibis War lends itself to a detailed analysis, from the strategic conferences of emperors, the field tactics of generals, the heroics of tribunes and the unscrupulous activities of spies, scoundrels, villains, and usurpers. While development of the strategy was simple its implementation was plagued by lack of resources, undermined by the actions of traitors and usurpers and ultimately derailed by King Shapur II and the Royal Persian Army.
"Source for a handbook: Reflections of Procopius' "Wars" in the "Strategicon" and in archaeology" The purpose of this amended article is to compare historical evidence to evaluate whether some of Belisarius’ actions, as described in the mid-sixth century by Procopius, are reflected in, or were inspired by, a military handbook known as the "Strategicon", and perhaps as well in archaeology.

For the 23 years prior to its banning on June 21, 1994, Tempo magazine was Indonesia's most important news weekly, and its chief editor, Goenawan Mohamad, one of Indonesia's leading poets and intellectuals. Yet despite its influence, the history of Tempo magazine is not widely known. All aspects of Tempo's history, including its roots in the literary and cultural milieu of the 1960s, its economic organization and management, its internal culture and system of deciding what's news, and its strategies for survival within a repressive press system, provide a window into the political and cultural history of Indonesia's New Order. Tempo occupied an ambiguous position in Indonesia's New Order, and Wars Within: The Story of Tempo, an Independent Magazine in Soeharto's Indonesia explores these contradictions and paradoxes. Clearly a product of the New Order, Tempo nevertheless presented independent points of view, often at considerable risk. Soeharto's government was never monolithic, and the story of how Tempo managed to survive 23 years of autocratic rule sheds light on the culture and politics of modern Indonesia. It also sheds light on broader questions concerning the role of the press in developing countries -- and on the kinds of negotiation that must go on for an essentially democratic institution to exist in an authoritarian space. Written in a narrative style, Wars Within utilizes a variety of methods and sources, including participant observation, a content analysis of Tempo's National section, close reading of Tempo's coverage of key episodes including the 1984 incident at Tanjung Priok, previously unpublished archival materials, and over one hundred interviews with the magazine's founders, writers, and contributors. Wars Within is an ideal supplemental text in courses on Southeast Asian history, politics, and culture, as well as in courses on international communication and media studies.
Problems of large scale, violent conflicts and war have been a central focus area for many decades. This course serves as an introduction to the Sociology of Conflict and War. The first part of the course examines ethnic conflict and violence. We will analyze the human dimension of ethnic conflict, ethnicity and nationalism, the cause of ethnic conflict and violence as well as different forms of violence in different countries and regions of the world. Finally, we will discuss ethnic conflict management and reconstruction. The second part of the course will concentrate on the sociology of war. We will incorporate different theories that bring new and critical insight with regards to the topics of war and violence. We will examine the origins, nature, experience and social consequences of war.
