Beschreibung zu „Secretary Root's Record:"Marked Severities" in Philippine Warfare“

In 'Secretary Root's Record:"Marked Severities" in Philippine Warfare,' editors Moorfield Storey and Julian Codman assemble a thought-provoking collection that scrutinizes the United States' military and administrative actions in the Philippines following the Spanish-American War. The anthology stands as a historical exposition, weaving together factual evidence, personal testimonies, and analytical essays to present a multifaceted view of a contentious period. Through the diversity of its literary styles, from impassioned argumentation to meticulous documentation, the collection draws attention to a critical and often overlooked chapter of American imperialism, offering a profound commentary on the ethics of power and governance. The contributors' backgrounds as prominent advocates for civil rights and legal reform underscore the anthology's commitment to justice and accountability. Storey, an influential figure in the early civil rights movement, and Codman, a respected lawyer with a keen interest in ethical governance, channel their professional insights into a compelling critique of American policies overseas. Their legal and moral scrutiny aligns with broader historical and cultural critiques of imperialism, making their anthology a critical read for anyone interested in the complex dynamics of power, coloniality, and resistance. This collection is recommended for scholars, students, and general readers alike who are keen to explore the intricacies of American foreign policy through a critical lens. Its comprehensive coverage and the authoritative perspectives of its editors make it an invaluable resource for understanding the implications of military and political strategies on human rights and integrity in international affairs.
