Civil-Military Relations (CMR) explores relationships between civil society and military organizations that protect it. For democracies, it’s a vital element of national governance, ensuring: (1) elected civilian leaders make a wide range of decisions regarding war and peace, and (2) military activities fit within civilian-defined national policy. CMR provides a crucible to examine the interaction of policy options, leader personalities, and organizational behavior. Case studies will test us to examine our beliefs of good governance, and to weigh facts versus arbitrary perceptions. Expect multiple points of view in discussions on the personalities, policies, crises, relationships and CMR outcomes.
