From the Back Cover

The end of the Cold War and the global advance of democracy have significantly altered both the external and internal security environments for many of the world's militaries. Under these new conditions, how will civil-military relations affect efforts to consolidate new democracies in developing and post-Communist countries? How should democratic governments go about establishing civilian control of the armed forces, or limiting military intervention in politics, or providing the military with new and appropriate missions?

About the Author

Larry Diamond, senior fellow at the Hoover Institution on War, Revolution, and Peace, and Marc F. Plattner, counselor at the National Endowment for Democracy, are co-directors of the International Forum for Democratic Studies.
