Civil-Military Relations in Israel - Essays in Honor of Stuart A. Cohen (Hardcover)

This book, a collection of essays in honor of Stuart Cohen, examines a variety of issues in the civil military relations (CMR) in Israel and abroad. Beyond honoring Cohen s work, this collection makes a substantial contribution to the field for a number of reasons. First, it brings together prominent scholars from different disciplines in the field, from both Israel and abroad, sketching its boundaries. The chapters in the collection deal with a variety of issues, theoretical and empirical, including topics that are usually neglected in English works, such as the control the military in Israel has on building construction permits in the civilian sector and the relations between the security establishment and the judicial system. Other chapters offer new theoretical perspectives such as the context within which Israeli CMR should be examined, and a more general look at the focus of CMR. Second, it allows non-Hebrew speaking scholars and laypersons alike a better idea of what the main issues in the field of civil military relations in Israel are today. There are very few good volumes on this topic in English that do not focus on a single aspect of civil military relations in Israel. This book will allow university professors and laypersons to access quality scholarship while still offering a broad spectrum of topics."
