{"product_id":"asian-military-evolutions-alan-chong-9781529229325","title":"Asian Military Evolutions: Civil-Military Relations in Asia","description":"This book explores civil-military relations in Asia. With chapters on individual countries in the region, it provides a comprehensive account of the range of contemporary Asian practices under conditions of abridged democracy, soft authoritarianism or complete totalitarianism. Through its analysis, the book argues that civil-military relations in Asia ought to be examined under the concept of 'Asian military evolutions'. It demonstrates that while Asian militaries have tried to incorporate standard, Western-derived frameworks of civil-military relations, it has been necessary to adapt such frameworks to suit local circumstances. The book reveals how this has in turn led to creative fusions and novel changes in making civil-military relations an asset to furthering national security objectives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alan Chong\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1529229324\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781529229325\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bristol University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/09\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 366\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.13lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.76d","brand":"Alan Chong","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45180740829439,"sku":"9781529229325","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f98ae878-7e80-449c-9c6d-2bd15202249a.jpg?v=1712898559","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/asian-military-evolutions-alan-chong-9781529229325","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
