This volume analyzes the impact of key global trends on
civil-military relations by examining defense reform processes
since the end of the Cold War. Civil - military relations are
reconceptualized to emphasize three dimensions: civilian control of
the armed forces, effectiveness in carrying out roles and missions,
and efficiency in use of resources. The key global trends that
affect these dimensions are the globalization of new norms and
ideas, the democratization of governance, technological innovation,
and economic liberalization. By focusing on defense reform
processes, this book examines cases where civil-military relations
can potentially alter quite rapidly under the impact of global
trends. By comparing cases across Europe, Asia, North and South
America, this book argues that democratization and globalization
have had an outsized role in determining the timing and sequence of
defense reform and the consequent impact on civil-military
relations.
