Building the Bridge from War to Peace: Defining Interagency Roles in Rebuilding a Nation

摘要

This Special Bibliography Series, Number 110, 'Building the Bridge from War to Peace: Defining Interagency Roles in Rebuilding a Nation,' was developed by Social Sciences Bibliographer and Reference Librarian, Ms. Frances K. Scott, in support of the 51st annual Academy Assembly to be held at the Air Force Academy, 6-9 October 2009. Convened annually since 1959, the United States Air Force Academy's Academy Assembly is an undergraduate student conference sponsored jointly by the Air Force Academy and Columbia University's American Assembly. Held on the Academy grounds at the base of the Rampart Range, this student-planned and executed conference provides a unique opportunity for over 50 highly qualified delegates to discuss a topic of contemporary significance. This year's topic focuses on defining the roles of the military and civilian agencies in helping to rebuild war-torn nations. Participants will engage in discussions on when war ends and reconstruction begins, as well as what the responsibilities of different organizations should be to most efficiently and effectively repair a war-ravaged area. Prominent academics, government officials, and business people serve as speakers and roundtable leaders at the event. This bibliography lists a selected portion of the McDermott (Cadet) Library's holdings on nation building. While it includes books and journal articles, it excludes newspaper articles on nation building. The call number listed at the end of each citation is typically the call number assigned by the Library of Congress, which most libraries use when adding books to their collections. Most items cited in this bibliography are available from the McDermott Library collections.
