Opis

These papers are from the international conference held at the Inter-American Defense College in 1992, on the question of what military warriors should do in peacetime. The intent of the meeting was to provide insights to US policy-makers in a period of geopolitical transition, and covered a range of military affairs and security relations: the roles and mission of militaries; military profesionalism; civil-military relations in democracy; how to deal with terrorism and insurgency; the pros and cons of the drug war; Central America; human rights; and the response of Washington to the radically changed policy agenda.

Spis treści

... the most important book in civil military relations specifically related to Latin America to appear in recent years ... This should be required reading for the military professional as this century closes.
