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.
