Countries have instituted policies to make their armed forces more
inclusive, and soldiers now undergo cultural awareness training
before seeing active duty. Policy makers and military organizations
agree that culture is important. But what does “culture” mean
in practice, and how is it important? Culture and the Soldier
answers these questions by examining how culture both shapes the
military and can be wielded by it, to good or ill effect. Through
case studies from Europe and North America, this volume offers
provocative insights into how culture can be deployed to improve
armed forces at home and in military engagements abroad.
