Comprising critical writings in civil-military relations theory and research, this book of essays integrates the ideas and insights drawn from political science, particularly its subfields of comparative politics, theory and methodology both normative and empirical, with those from the combined disciplines of philosophy of science, history, sociology, and development studies, bringing out the relevance of these ideas and insights for understanding and analysing the issues central to the place and role of military in the Nigerian society. This book will be useful to students, academics, journalists and activists working on Nigeria in particular, and Africa in general. Print edition not for sale in Nigeria.
