Book Synopsis The Military and Politics in Five Developing Nations by : John P. Lovell
Download or read book The Military and Politics in Five Developing Nations written by John P. Lovell and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report consists of five case studies of the political role of the military: Ethiopia, Jordan, Pakistan, South Korea, and Burma. It includes an introductory essay by the editor suggesting conceptualization of a research format--that an explanation of the political role of the military depends upon (1) the political resources of the military, (2) the political perspectives of the military, and (3) patterns of demands and supports within the civilian sector. Each study presents the history of the armed forces, their organization, training, patterns of social recruitment, and values. The political history of each country emphasizes causes of political stability or instability such as sociopolitical divisions or presence of a potential external threat. The politicization of the military resulting from these internal and political factors has led to incidents of military involvement in politics, including coups d'etat in all the countries, and to military governments in three of them; these incidents, and the military governments, are described in detail.

Book Synopsis Military Coercion and US Foreign Policy by : Melanie W. Sisson
Download or read book Military Coercion and US Foreign Policy written by Melanie W. Sisson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-04-23 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the use of military force as a coercive tool by the United States, using lessons drawn from the post-Cold War era (1991–2018). The volume reveals that despite its status as sole superpower during the post-Cold War period, US efforts to coerce other states failed as often as they succeeded. In the coming decades, the United States will face states that are more capable and creative, willing to challenge its interests and able to take advantage of missteps and vulnerabilities. By using lessons derived from in-depth case studies and statistical analysis of an original dataset of more than 100 coercive incidents in the post-Cold War era, this book generates insight into how the US military can be used to achieve policy goals. Specifically, it provides guidance about the ways in which, and the conditions under which, the US armed forces can work in concert with economic and diplomatic elements of US power to create effective coercive strategies. This book will be of interest to students of US national security, US foreign policy, strategic studies and International Relations in general.
Book Synopsis Militarism in Developing Countries by : Kenneth Fidel
Download or read book Militarism in Developing Countries written by Kenneth Fidel and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on 1975 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interaction between civilian and military sec-tors is playing an ever-increasing part in the de-velopment of many Third World nations today. Unique in its combined focus on the military and development forces simultaneously at work in these countries, Militarism in Developing Coun-tries presents the latest findings of the best-known scholars in this field. The major issues, themes, problems, pro-cesses and trends in this vital area of interna-tional diplomacy and study are looked at via a broad spectrum of approaches. A comprehen-sive overview of the situation is contained in chapters including theoretical analyses, case studies and general treatments. Specific types of development models are re-lated to the expansion of the military role. Power seizures by military forces are discussed in light of the interplay among the changing class struc-tures, organizational structures and institutional processes that created the proper conditions for military takeovers and helped to select the per-sonnel involved. Elite civilian and military groups are examined along with the resultant social changes and development they fostered. Similar-ly, the consequential stagnation or progress that comes from the military's operation as a special-interest group as well as its internal conflicts ofinterest are discussed. Also covered are the po-tentials and limitations of military-sponsored so-cial changes, international trends in the mili-tarization of developing nations and foreign influences on the professional socialization of Third World officers. This volume deftly highlights the fact that, in most contemporary developing countries, the military institution is inextricably involved not only in politics but also in determining every major social process.

Book Synopsis Sociology and Military Studies by : Joseph Soeters
Download or read book Sociology and Military Studies written by Joseph Soeters and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-14 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the connection between sociology and the challenges faced by the modern military. Military sociology has received little attention in the broader academic world, and is mostly focused on civil-military relations. This book seeks to address this gap and combines ideas, theories and insights from sociology’s founding authors, with each chapter focusing on a specific thinker. There are chapters on Max Weber, Emile Durkheim, Karl Marx, Georg Simmel, Jane Addams, W. E. B. Du Bois, Erving Goffman, Michel Foucault, Morris Janowitz, Norbert Elias, Cornelis Lammers, Arlie Russell Hochschild, Cynthia Enloe and Bruno Latour, and each essay discusses their ideas and theories in relation to topics that are of concern in and around the military today. Military studies are taken in a broad sense here, so the volume encompasses a wide range of issues, including civil-military relations, military-political affairs, performance and outcomes of military operations, and organizational arrangements including technology and the composition, performance and well-being of personnel. The book intends to provide views and insights that will help the military to innovate their organizations and practices, not necessarily in the usual functional way of innovating (i.e. faster, more precise, etc.) but in a broader way. This book will be of great interest to students of sociology, military studies, civil-military relations, war and conflict studies, and IR in general.
Book Synopsis Civil–Military Relationships in Developing Countries by : Dhirendra K. Vajpeyi
Download or read book Civil–Military Relationships in Developing Countries written by Dhirendra K. Vajpeyi and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2013-12-16 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines two sides of civil–military relations in developing countries. One is the place of civil-military relations within a state’s political and economic systems; the other is the role of the military on a state’s maintenance of peace and stability. The book thus proposes that the function of soldiers is not only to defend and deter, but also to develop. The chapters provide a comprehensive analysis of civil-military relationship with comparative cases on Botswana, China, El Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala, India, Indonesia, Nicaragua, Nigeria, Pakistan, and The Arab Spring Countries of the Middle East including Bahrain, Sudan, Iraq, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Tunisia, Yemen and Libya. Each chapter analyzes the historical, cultural and political factors that shape the direction of the man on the white horse (military elite) and the politician. In doing so, this book reveals the potential impact of the nature of civil military relations on democratization, political and economic development, and on regional/international security. Dhirendra Vajpeyi and Glen Segell discuss and critique the current models and literature on civil-military relations. The innovative framework and careful choice of case studies, presented in a jargon-free, accessible style, makes this book attractive to scholars and students of civil military relations and development studies, as well as policymakers.

Book Synopsis Military Development In Africa by : Bruce E. Arlinghaus
Download or read book Military Development In Africa written by Bruce E. Arlinghaus and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-03-04 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increases in the number and improvements in the quality of arms transferred to sub-Saharan African nations clearly will affect those nations' economic development and political stability both immediately and in the long term. Problems of technology absorption, manpower development, and the diversion of financial and human resources occasioned by such transfers become more and more critical as the demand for military modernization by African governments grows and the industrial nations compete to meet the demand. Dr. Arlinghaus evaluates conflicting assessments of the costs and benefits of military development from the perspective that it would be best for African nations to allocate resources for defense on the basis of socioeconomic considerations as well as their military and political goals.
Download or read book Beyond Coercion written by Adeed Dawisha and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-07-24 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume, first published in 1988, analyses the process of stabilisation amongst the Arab states, a process that has contradicted all predictions of impending disintegration and impending collapse. Although there were some cases of disintegration, there are evidently mechanisms at work that helped consolidate the majority of Arab states and the Arab state system. Revolutions, as in Iran or the Sudan, or political collapse and disintegration, as in Lebanon, have been highly visible but nevertheless exceptions. This collection, Volume Three in the Nation, State and Integration in the Arab World research project carried out by the Istituto Affari Internazionali, focuses on the problem of explaining the stability and persistence of the state in the Arab world.
