By the end of World War I, Britain had promised control of Palestine to both Arabs and Jews. Each of these peoples claimed a longstanding right to the same piece of land, and violence was inevitable. This presentation examines how and why this magical land has become a virtual war zone

Cuba by Joseph Stromberg( )

13 editions published between 1991 and 2011 in English and held by 150 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

This island was once a clearinghouse for importing slaves into the New World. It later became one of the world's few remaining bastions of Marxism, proclaiming socio-economic equality.

This presentation focuses on Cuba's economic and social upheaval, with special attention to how this has affected the United States

This presentation explores the economic and social forces that have brought South Africa into the international spotlight

Central America by Joseph Stromberg( )

Germany by Ralph Raico( )

9 editions published between 1991 and 2012 in English and held by 131 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Germany is historically one of the most important of all nations. Since emerging from its days as a Roman province, Germany (including Prussia) has had a central role in European affairs. It has reached the heights in art, music, literature, and political power, yet it's also reached the depths in humiliating military defeat and partition. This presentation reviews the broad sweep of German history. The World's political hot spots series explains the basis of conflicts in some of the world's most politically sensitive areas. Many of these regions are in today's headlines, and tensions recently have become violent in virtually all of them. Each presentation covers up to ten centuries of background, revealing how and why today's problems occur

The Philippines by Wendy McElroy( )

9 editions published between 1991 and 2012 in English and held by 127 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
