Recenzii

"...an empirical gem,....a valuable addition to the libraries of anyone with an interest in military history, sociology, psychology, or political science." - Parameters"An essential and necessary tour-de-force across the American civil-military relations literature contextualized in the aftermath of the post-9/11 world.Morgan captures the historical writings of many of the scholarly giants of civil-military studies such as Huntington and stands on their shoulders, coupling them with hot button case studies of landmines and women in the military. While heavily weighted toward political science, the analysis is interdisciplinary in focus, capturing works from strategic studies, war studies, military history, international relations, military sociology, and military psychology as well. American and international audiences will find the book to be a strong contribution to the evolving literature." - Morten G. Ender, Sociology Program Director, Department of Behavioral Sciences & Leadership, United States Military Academy * " . . .solid and well-written . . . covers a great deal of intellectual ground efficiently. . . .has the scholarly substance to satisfy specialists in civil-military specialists and the readability to interest a lay audience. I recommend it highly . . .belongs on the bookshelf of anyone concerned with the effect of the current and projected future threat environments on the military and on its relation to the society it serves." - John Allen Williams, Professor of Political Science, Loyola University
