DEFINING A MODEL FOR ANALY-SIS
OF CIVIL-MILITARY RELATIONS
PATTERNS
Abstract
Following Huntington’s construct in The Soldier and the State, healthy
civil-military relations (CMR) strike a balance between two impera-tives
-functional and societal- which maximizes military effectiveness
without harming the democratic nature of the state. Maintaining the
stability of a CMR pattern demands constant monitoring, so as to be
able to identify flaws that might break the balance.
The paper proposes a model for analysis of CMR patterns that covers
four areas: Professional Autonomy, Military Participation in Policy-ma-king,
Relation of the Military with its Civil Society, and Military Non-partisanship.
It then tries to define the optimum point of balance in
each area to outline how an “ideal” CMR profile should look like. The
paper, then, applies the model to two cases that are compared against
the proposed one. At the end, the paper draws some general conclu-sions
and identifies issues left open for further research.
Keywords
Civil-Military Relations, Professional Autonomy, Defense, Policy, So-ciety,
Non-Partisanship.
