This simply was destiny. In our research trips to Europe my wife, Leni, and I sought only to address the issues of anti-Semitism and the holocaust as it affected our own families. We toured synagogues, death camps and memorials in numerous countries attesting to the slaughter of six million Jews. But in 2009, the unexpected happened. We visited the…

        The Soviet Union did not lose the Cold War; it was the United States who lost the Soviet Union. After the Soviet disintegration, it was America who felt a huge hole of nostalgia in her heart while the U.S. remained an important global power to new Russia. Historically, the U.S. has built its unprecedented prosperity through…

The book, written by James Sherr, the associate fellow of the Russian and Eurasian Programme at Chatham House (Royal Institute of Foreign Affairs, London), an expert with extensive advisory experience on the Soviet and Russian military, security and foreign policy, was launched in June, 2013.

Dear Reader,

The Japanese public has lost their trust in nuclear power as a safe source of energy. The public is also concerned about the possibility of another earthquake/tsunami or other unexpected but possible causes of a similar malfunctioning in the nuclear power reactors. Many people are asking whether accepting the risk of having a nuclear fall-out from a…

The cancellation of Obama’s visit to Moscow made compellingly clear what previously many have suspected: the current presidents of the United States and Russia are in a state of conflict. Perhaps the problem is the two men’s individual psychological incompatibility – this sometimes happens between politicians. However, in this…
