This is a compelling and dramatic account of Cuban policy in Africa from 1959 to 1976 and of its escalating clash with U.S. policy toward the continent. Piero Gleijeses's fast-paced narrative takes the reader from Cuba's first steps to assist Algerian rebels fighting France in 1961, to the secret war between Havana and Washington in Zaire in 1964-65--where 100 Cubans led by Che Guevara clashed with 1,000 mercenaries controlled by the CIA--and, finally, to the dramatic dispatch of 30,000 Cubans to Angola in 1975-76, which stopped the South African advance on Luanda and doomed Henry Kissinger's major covert operation there. Based on unprecedented archival research and firsthand interviews in virtually all of the countries involved--Gleijeses was even able to gain extensive access to closed Cuban archives--this comprehensive and balanced work sheds new light on U.S. foreign policy and CIA covert operations. It revolutionizes our view of Cuba's international role, challenges conventional U.S. beliefs about the influence of the Soviet Union in directing Cuba's actions in Africa, and provides, for the first time ever, a look from the inside at Cuba's foreign policy during the Cold War. "Fascinating . . . and often downright entertaining. . . . Gleijeses recounts the Cuban story with considerable flair, taking good advantage of rich material.--Washington Post Book World "Gleijeses's research . . . bluntly contradicts the Congressional testimony of the era and the memoirs of Henry A. Kissinger. . . . After reviewing Dr. Gleijeses's work, several former senior United States diplomats who were involved in making policy toward Angola broadly endorsed its conclusions.--New York Times "With the publication of Conflicting Missions, Piero Gleijeses establishes his reputation as the most impressive historian of the Cold War in the Third World. Drawing on previously unavailable Cuban and African as well as American sources, he tells a story that's full of fresh and surprising information. And best of all, he does this with a remarkable sensitivity to the perspectives of the protagonists. This book will become an instant classic.--John Lewis Gaddis, author of We Now Know: Rethinking Cold War History Based on unprecedented research in Cuban, American, and European archives, this is the compelling story of Cuban policy in Africa from 1959 to 1976 and of its escalating clash with U.S. policy toward the continent. Piero Gleijeses sheds new light on U.S. foreign policy and CIA covert operations, revolutionizes our view of Cuba's international role, and provides the first look from the inside at Cuba's foreign policy during the Cold War. -->

International Relations, as a discipline, tends to focus upon European and Western canons of modern social and political thought. Alternatively, this book explores the global imperial and colonial context within which knowledge of modernity has been developed. The chapters sketch out the historical depth and contemporary significance of non-Western thought on modernity, as well as the rich diversity of its individuals, groups, movements and traditions. The contributors theoretically and substantively engage with non-Western thought in ways that refuse to render it exotic to, superfluous to or derivative of the orthodox Western canon of social and political thought. Taken as a whole, the book provides deep insights into the contested nature of a global modernity shaped so fundamentally by Western colonialism and imperialism. Now, as ever, these insights are desperately needed for a discipline that is so closely implicated in Western foreign policy making and yet retains such a myopic horizon of inquiry. This work provides a significant contribution to the field and will be of great interest to all scholars of politics, political theory and international relations theory.

Imagine making poems the way an architect designs buildings or an engineer builds bridges. Such was the ambition of João Cabral de Melo Neto. Though a great admirer of the thing-rich poetries of Francis Ponge and of Marianne Moore, what interested him even more, as he remarked in his acceptance speech for the 1992 Neustadt International Prize for Literature, was "the exploration of the materiality of words," the "rigorous construction of (. . .) lucid objects of language." His poetry, hard as stone and light as air, is like no other.

This dissertation intends to create a simulation of search and rescue (SaR) missions using Gazebo virtual world and Robot Operating System (ROS). The simulator is evaluated with multiple robots search using the Robotic Darwinian Particle Swarm Optimization (RDPSO) exploration algorithm, considering several real-world phenomena, such as radio frequency (RF) and voice. Although the RDPSO algorithm has already been developed and evaluated in Matlab environment, it cannot be directly implemented in real platforms. To address this disadvantage, ROS was chosen to implement the algorithm and, due to its compatibility with ROS, Gazebo was chosen as the simulation platform to evaluate multi-robot systems in SaR scenarios. For the RDPSO to be fully implemented, the RF signal and voice propagation models were equally implemented in ROS. For that matter, mathematic models, previously proposed in the literature, are analyzed and a study about the environment noise influence in missions of SaR based on voice localization is conducted. The RF model was simulated using the multi-wall method, which does not only consider the free space signal loss but also the loss of walls with different properties (e.g., thickness and type). The voice model is based on the RF model by adjusting the parameters to better adapt to the voice properties. The RDPSO algorithm, implemented in ROS, uses the RF model to simulate its mobile ad hoc network (MANET) connectivity component. In the context of finding victims, the RDPSO uses the voice propagation model to simulate the call for help by the victims. Environment noise was introduced in the simulation, which influenced the victims’ rescue rate by making harder for the rescue team to listen to the victim’s call. This influence is bigger as the environment noise level gets higher, thus there is the need for a better exploration of the map as the rescue team has to walk closer and closer to the victims, so that voice and noise can be distinguished.

This Omnibus E-Book brings together Piero Gleijeses's two landmark books for the first time: Visions of Freedom: Havana, Washington, Pretoria, and the Struggle for Southern Africa, 1976-1991 During the final fifteen years of the Cold War, southern Africa underwent a period of upheaval, with dramatic twists and turns in relations between the superpowers. Americans, Cubans, Soviets, and Africans fought over the future of Angola, where tens of thousands of Cuban soldiers were stationed, and over the decolonization of Namibia, Africa's last colony. Beyond lay the great prize: South Africa. Piero Gleijeses uses archival sources, particularly from the United States, South Africa, and the closed Cuban archives, to provide an unprecedented international history of this important theater of the late Cold War. Conflicting Missions: Havana, Washington, and Africa, 1959-1976 This sweeping history of Cuban policy in Africa from 1959 to 1976 is based on unprecedented research in African, Cuban, and American archives. (Among Gleijeses's many sources are Cuban archival materials to which he is the only non-Cuban to ever have access.) Setting his story within the context of U.S. policy toward both Africa and Cuba during the Cold War, Gleijeses challenges the notion that Cuban policy in Africa was directed by the Soviet Union.

¡Lea esta maravillosa historia, no se lo pierda! Travesía de dos inmigrantes es una historia maravillosa de la vida real de Bartolomé y Maribel. Es una narración en lenguaje sencillo, pero valiente. Es una historia para el buen lector latinoamericano. Encontrará drama y suspense en todas sus páginas. La presente historia ilustra momentos de felicidad y angustia de dos personajes que se aventuraron a viajar a los EE.UU. en busca de nuevas oportunidades de trabajo para, así, ayudar a sus hijos y familia. Atraídos por el país de las bonanzas, por su economía, que no era muy buena ya que en su país no podían salir adelante para poder progresar. Esta historia es una narración sencilla de la odisea que les tocó vivir, de su peregrinaje desde la República de Perú hasta Los Ángeles, en Norteamérica. Una travesía fantástica de sacrificio y sufrimiento, un viaje por tierra, aire y mar que duró un año y cinco meses. En esa época pasaron por Nicaragua, Centro América, cuando estaban gobernando los sandinistas, un gobierno comunista totalitario con su dictadura. Para Bartolomé y Maribel, al llegar a la frontera de Piedras Blancas con Juan José de Costa Rica y Nicaragua. En la entrada se veía un gigantesco letrero que decía "Nicaragua Libre jamás se arrodillará ante los yanquis". ¡Qué emoción para ellos al ver aquella frase! Sus corazones latían fuertemente de alegría, sus ojos se nublaron como queriendo llorar. Pero en unos minutos, todo cambió. Al ingresar al país, se llevaron una gran decepción al encontrarlo todo diferente. No había ni taxis ni empresas de transportes que los llevaran a Guatemala. Sólo podían viajar en los vagones de carga que iban a México. Como medio de transporte de carga sólo veían una carreta grande jalada por un caballo, un buey o un burro. Mientras sus hijos andaban cargados con bultos por su pueblo, por las solitarias carreteras bajo el ardiente calor. Amigo, si quieres saber más de un gobierno comunista, no dejes de leer esta maravillosa historia.
