Reviews

"The framework proposed by the handbook and its validation through the series of case studies presents the necessary features to be later transformed into an updated theory of CMR and, hence, model of analysis. The Routledge Handbook of Civil-Military Relations is a valuable addition to the existing literature in the field of civil-military relations. In this respect, it will make an essential reading for students and practitioners in the fields of civil-military relations, defense studies, war and conflict studies, international security, and international relations in general." - Cezar Valescu, Aura Codreanu & Florin-Eduard Grosaru, Journal of Defense Resources Management, Vol. 3, 2 (5), October 2012   "Overall,  this is a very useful book that deserves a wide readership. The book's cross-regional comparisons of cases from Africa, the Americas, Asia, and Europe are both valuable and unusual in this field of study and there is more than enough material here (including detailed references) to keep scholars and bring graduate students completely up to date. Moreover, the strong concern of the editors for practical issues in institutionalizing civilian control, military effectiveness, and military efficiency, makes this book also highly recommendable for practitioners in the fields of military, defense and security policies."- Aurel Croissant, E-IR journal
