The Bay Of Pigs - Peter Wyden's "Untold Story"
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page analysis of the Peter Wyden's fascinating book. This is a well-researched, scholarly, historical account, of the disastrous invasion of Cuba in the Kennedy administration, which reads as if it were a novel. Full of dialogue and description, Wyden gives the reader an insider's view of how the plans for the Bay of Pigs Invasion were carried out within the U.S. government; and, in the process, he also gives the reader a clear understanding as to how so many extremely intelligent leaders, America's best and brightest, could think that the CIA plan could work. What he succeeds in showing his readership is that even the best and most well intentioned leaders are not supermen, they are human, and as such, they are capable of error. The Bay of Pigs was-quite simply-a mistake-one of the most dramatic in U.S. history. No additional sources cited.

The Bombing of Pearl Harbor: A Japanese Mistake
[ send me this paper ]
A 14 page overview of the events leading up to the Japanese bombing of Pearly Harbor and the long term response of the United States. By bombing Pearl Harbor the Japanese invoked not only the military might of the United States but also her political and economic power. That one act would ensure both the overt and the covert hostilities of the United States for the next six decades. Pearl Harbor ensured Japan's defeat militarily, politically, and economically. Although she eventually overcame the economic, and indeed even the political, annoyances hurled by the United States, the United States proved to be the most formidable enemy Japan ever faced. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

The Bretton Woods System
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Recovering from the World War II was no easy feat. The battle, which was the largest and most expensive in history, proved to be a physical and moral albatross around the political necks of all who were a part. To think that entire cities were devastated, entire populations were erased and entire races were eliminated took its toll on those who were lucky enough to survive. Additionally, there had to be a manner by which to steady the exchange rate that had lost its economic footing during the war. It is at this point that the American dollar – and its subsequent demand under the Bretton Woods system – caused great bitterness with the European elite. The writer discusses which theory best sustains the origins and the evolution of the Bretton Woods System: pluralism, realism, liberalism or dependency. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
