Rezensionen
' [A] first class work...significant in that it presents concrete and well-documented case studies in a truly comparative fashion...There is no book that comes close to the analysis and information presented here on postcommunist states. This is a major contribution to military sociology, military history and civil-military relations...[A] standard reference for some years to come.' - Charles Moskos, Professor of Sociology, Northwestern University, USA

'This unique book will remain a must-read in the field for years to come.' - Gerhard Kummel, Slavic Review
