Putting into question the conventional view that the military is
detrimental to democratic development, Dolman provides a
multifaceted examination of the institutional incentives of the
military and its relations with civilian authorities. Drawing on
classical political theory, a wide range of historical examples,
and statistical findings, The Warrior State argues that the
military can facilitate democracy as the result of specific norms
and conditions that focus on individual action. Ironically, this
may be best inculcated through a focus on the offensive, precisely
the military doctrine commonly seen as most likely to result in
international conflict. The paradox of offensive strategies
possibly increasing international conflict while also enhancing
democracy, which is supposed to decrease such conflict, from a core
of this provocative book.
