Description

Kukreja applies a much-needed theoretical framework to the empirical study of civil-military relations in South Asia, specifically Pakistan, Bangladesh and India. The book relates the underlying infirmities in the society, history and culture of these three nations to their differing degrees of military intervention in politics. It also highlights the importance of political, cultural, socio-economic and ideological factors in conditioning the patterns of civil-military relations.
