Recenzii
A Yankee Book Peddler UK Core Title for 2014 ’This case study of the British Military Covenant is a major contribution to one of the most important issues in contemporary civil-military relations. It is empirically rich, clear in argument and is essential reading for practitioners and policy-makers, academics and students.’ Anthony Forster, University of Essex, UK ’The military covenant is now firmly fixed in the landscape of Britain's civil-military relations in Britain. It has strong backing from central and local government, and it has provoked interest abroad as other countries consider imitating it. And yet ignorance - about its origins, its development, its meaning and its purpose - remains widespread. Sarah Ingham has provided the first scholarly examination of the Covenant in a pioneering and important study.’ Hew Strachan, University of Oxford, UK

Descriere
The Military Covenant states that in exchange for their military service and their willingness to make the ultimate sacrifice, soldiers should receive the nation’s support. Exploring the concept’s invention by the Army in the late 1990s, its migration to the civilian sphere from 2006 and its subsequent entrenchment in public policy, Ingham seeks to understand the Covenant’s progress from the esoteric confines of Army doctrine to national recognition.
