Edited by the preeminent military sociologist Morris Janowitz, this anthology assembles rigorous scholarly analyses that dissect how military institutions adapt their structures, hierarchies, and cultures in response to the sweeping technological, political, and social changes of the twentieth century. The work presents a multi-faceted portrait of the soldier and the institution, arguing that the classic model of the warrior profession is being fundamentally reshaped by the demands of a nuclear age and evolving civil-military relations.\n\nJanowitz, widely regarded as the founding father of military sociology, brings together contributions that collectively illustrate the tension between tradition and modernization within one of society's most enduring institutions. The collection argues persuasively that understanding the military requires understanding the society it serves — and vice versa — making it an indispensable text for students of political science, sociology, and organizational theory alike. For anyone seeking to understand the human machinery behind modern armed forces, this volume raises questions about duty, authority, and identity that remain as urgent today as when they were first posed.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49203384025307,"sku":"2026200013441-SECONDHAND","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/62657736-b491-42dc-b58d-1efb948d1a1c.png?v=1788148143","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200013441-secondhand-the-new-military-changing-patterns-of-organization","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
