The post-9/11 era and the overall impact of international terrorism
have generated much debate regarding the role of military apparatus
in modern society. This book assesses the inherent meaning of the
militarization from a critical, interdisciplinary perspective.
Against the background of democracy and capitalism, The Marketing
of War in the Age of Neo-Militarism challenges prevailing accounts
of the "military-industrial complex" as it explores significant
interrelated themes denoting the accelerating process of
militarization of society. Designed to address pressing
socio-political phenomena, this book is the first of its genre
contesting conventional wisdom about the perceived link between war
and the "military-industrial complex." It is unique not merely
because of its approach, but also for its thorough analysis of
deeply affected social institutions and processes such as
education, popular culture, geopolitics, military expenditure,
space and the environment. Contributing authors advance the
discussion by exposing factual information demonstrating the nature
and scope of society's militarization. Their analysis is also
broadened to encompass key concepts and diverse aspects of the
subject matter that provoke a lively debate. The book offers
compelling arguments that will be indispensable to scholars,
students, professionals, and policy and decision makers with an
interest in social and political sciences as well as in other
related fields.
