美国内战时期联邦海军反干涉战略探析

联邦海军在美国内战中担负着打击叛乱势力和防范外来干涉的双重任务。尤其是在内战初期陆上战局不利、存在明显外来干涉危险的形势下,联邦海军有效地发挥了其国防屏障作用和战略威慑功能,在遏制英国干涉图谋的过程中发挥了重要作用。及时把握住技术变革所带来的历史机遇,以技术创新弥补整体实力的差距,是联邦海军反干涉战略得以成功的前提,战略的内核则体现为立足本国国情、实施积极防御和有限威慑的务实路线。     

The Lines Formed Round Oxford,With Notices of the Part Taken by the University in Behalf of the Royalist Cause,between 1642 and 1646

A data base containing details of all the published Anglo-Saxon buildings constructed in timber has been created in the course of previous work. In this paper, a systematic analysis of the contents of the data base is presented with particular reference to regional differences in the buildings and their chronological development. From this, spatial and temporal patterns of evolution of the buildings are determined, and are briefly compared with those of Anglo-Saxon culture as a whole.     

The Foreign Enlistment Act and the Spanish Civil War, 1936-1939

This article examines the official response to the policy problemsraised by the over two thousand Britons who went to fight forthe Republic during the Spanish Civil War, with particular referenceto the Foreign Enlistment Act (1870). Revived in January 1937as a means of reducing the flow of volunteers and curbing therecruiting efforts of the Communist Party of Great Britain,the act proved embarrassingly unenforceable. Ambiguity overits applicability to the situation in Spain, combined with problemsof evidence, meant that no charges were ever laid against volunteerscaught attempting to leave for Spain or members of the recruitingorganization of the CPGB. Though a complete failure as a legaltool, the Foreign Enlistment Act nevertheless symbolically underlinedthe British government's declared support for internationalnon-intervention in Spain, and was never rescinded.     

Allies at Loggerheads: Sino-U.S.Military Cooperation During the Pacific War, 1941-1945

In the late 1960s,with many American intellectuals frustrated by the Vietnam War,plus the opening of U.S.World War Ⅱ records,the history of the spoiled relations between China and the U.S.were,again,combed through by historians.The "Stilwell Incident," as known by the Chinese (especially in Taiwan),together with the experience of the "China hands," were often the core of historical inquiry.In 1970,Barbara Tuchman published her renowned work:Stilwell and the American Experience in China,1911-1945;and soon her interpretation became prevailing.Over the years,the perception of Stilwell and the China hands,as presented by Tuchman,regarding the conflict between "vinegar Joe" Stilwell and the Nationalist leader Chiang Kai-shek,as well as the fall of the Generalissimo had been accepted as an accurate representation of China's war time history.

1936—1939年西班牙内战时期的不干涉委员会

1936年7月,西班牙内战爆发。8月26日,在英国和法国的积极倡导下,“关于实施不干涉西班牙协定国际委员会”即通常所说的不干涉委员会在伦敦成立。委员会由参加“不干涉”协定的27个国家的驻英大使组成。英法在推行不干涉政策时表现出极大的软弱性和自私性,暴露出其对德意的绥靖本质。对于西班牙共和政府而言,不干涉委员会的种种政策与行为恰恰给其带来了更大的灾难。1939年2月27日,英法两国正式承认佛朗哥政权,伙同意大利和德国共同扼杀了西班牙共和国。3月19日,不干涉委员会寿终正寝。     

民族主义视角下的苏丹南北内战

苏丹南北内战是北方的阿拉伯主义和南方的非洲主义之间的冲突。其原因在于苏丹国家民族主义意识成长不足及国家领导人试图同化苏丹南方黑人的阿拉伯化和伊斯兰化政策。该问题的最终解决取决于苏丹国家现代化的发展及当权者的民族平等政策。
