I have to recommend Thomas PM Barnett's new book, Great Powers. I don't think enough people are out there thinking in this grand strategic way, and not many are doing it as succinctly and easy to read as Dr. Barnett.
Some thoughts:
Grand Strategic Thinking makes a lot of stuff small stuff. Things that a lot of people get all up in arms about like Human Rights Violations in China...small stuff for the grand strategist.
ORCON - one of the things I hate about blogs it the continuous repetition of the same stuff. I suppose it is necessary to market ideas and spread the good ones around, but I hate that my twitter feed is a bunch of people posting the same things over and over. I can't follow all these people if I get spammed Heritage Foundation posts from 19 different sources.
Happy Mother's Day!
About Me
- DeanO
- I am a Christian Conservative. I am not happy with how the Liberal Government is moving closer and closer to impeding my pursuit of happiness. This is where I vent when I get fed up! I try not to just post links and post my own thoughts. That is why I don't post that often. My twitter feed updates more often, but then you get a lot of stuff that you probably don't care about!!
