This innovative book presents the reader with a clear international
view of interdisciplinary and intradisciplinary approaches to
military and conflict-resolution studies. In this first title on
its subject, leading expert Giuseppe Caforio offers a thorough
analysis of the new aspects and trends of the social sciences in
studying the military.
Since the end of the Cold War, military operations other than war,
crisis-response operations, the fight against terrorism, and
hi-tech warfare have posed for the militaries of all countries a
new set of human and social challenges and problems of an intensity
that had never been seen in peacetime. Sociology, social
psychology, anthropology and the science of conflict are grappling
with these issues, common to all armed forces, with a new fervour.
This new book offers an update on the state-of-the-art on this
theme and defines the latest study and research trends in the
field.
Social Sciences and the Military contains essays by some of the
most highly regarded scholars on the subject and will be essential
reading for all students of civil-military relations, conflict
resolution and military studies in general.
