Description

Military Legitimacy examines the evolving challenges facing the US military in the post-Cold War era, particularly in operations beyond traditional warfare. Rudolph Barnes argues that institutional barriers within the Pentagon-including an ingrained focus on combat and narrow perspectives on military professionalism-hinder the development of effective capabilities for complex operations. Drawing on historical case studies spanning from Vietnam to the intervention in Somalia, this Routledge publication provides a critical analysis of how organizational culture shapes military readiness. The book addresses the tension between traditional military doctrine and the operational demands of a changing geopolitical landscape, offering insights into military reform and institutional adaptation.

Key Features

Examines post-Cold War military operations and the institutional obstacles preventing effective non-combat responses.

Uses historical examples from Vietnam through Somalia to illustrate Pentagon decision-making patterns.

Challenges the organizational bias for combat within the US military establishment.

Published by Routledge, a leading academic publisher specialising in military and defence studies.

Argues for military professionalism reform to address Cold War-era traditionalist viewpoints.
