National Service (NS) is one of Singapore's foundational public
policies. First implemented by the British in 1954, amended in 1967
to provide a means to defend a fledgling independent nation, and
codified into its present form in 1970, NS is a key pillar of
Singapore's defence. Its significance, however, goes beyond
defence. With over 1 million male Singapore citizens and permanent
residents having served NS, and consequently involving many more -
family members, friends, employers and colleagues - in different
ways, NS is deeply woven into Singapore's political and social
fabric. This volume brings together a range of scholarly
perspectives on NS which explore its past, present and future in
four sections: The history of NS, NS in practice, debates on NS and
an international perspective. Comprising chapters by individuals
from varied backgrounds, National Service in Singapore offers a
broad account of one of Singapore's oldest public policies.
