‘From the obsession with the Second World War (and later) Special Forces
through wars of decolonization to contemporary terrorism, Paul B. Rich ably sets
American British, French, Italian and Israeli cinema against the context of the
events depicted. This is a major contribution not just to film history, but also to
our understanding of evolving conflict.’
IAN F, W. BECKETT, Professor of Military History, University of Kent, UK
Cinematic representations of unconventional warfare have received sporadic
attention to date. However, this pattern has now begun to change with the rise
of insurgency and counter-insurgency in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the growing
importance of jihadist terrorism in the wake of 9/11. This ground-breaking study
provides a much-needed examination of global unconventional warfare in 20th-
century filmmaking, with case studies from the United States, Britain, France,
Italy and Israel.
Paul B. Rich examines Hollywood’s treatment of counter-terrorism and counter-
insurgency in the United States; British post-colonial insurgencies in Malaya
and Kenya and British special operations in the Second World War; French
filmmaking and the reluctance to deal with the bitter war in Algeria in the 1950s;
Italian neorealism and its impact on films dealing with urban insurgency by
Roberto Rossellini, Nanni Loy and Gillo Pontecorvo, and Israel and the upsurge
of Palestinian terrorism. ;
Whilst only a small number of films on these conflicts have been able to rise
above stereotyping insurgents and terrorists - in some cases due to a pattern of
screen orientalism - Cinema and Unamventiona! Warfare in the Twentieth Century
stresses the positive political gains to be derived from humanizing terrorists and
terrorist movements, especially in the context of modern jihadist terrorism.
This is essential reading for academics, postgraduates and advanced
undergraduates interested in 20th-century military history, politics and
international relations and film studies.
PAUL B. RICH is Editor of the journal Small Wars and Insurgencies and does
consultancy work for TRENDS: Research Advisory. He has taught politics and
international relations at the universities of Bristol, Warwick and Melbourne,
and has published extensively on insurgency and counter-insurgency, terrorism
and warlordism.
