327   $aProblems with how we think about U.S. civil-military relations -- A comparative approach to the analysis of civil-military relations -- The institutions of U.S. civil-military relations -- Defense reform: institutional and political impediments to effectiveness -- The scale and politics of contracting out security -- An assessment of the performance of private security contractors.
330   $aThis book develops a new approach to the analysis of civil-military relations by focusing on the effectiveness of the armed forces in fulfilling roles & missions, and on their efficiency in terms of cost. The approach is applied to the United States using official documents and interviews with policy-makers.  In addition to analyzing the impact of defense reform initiatives over the past thirty years, the book includes the recent phenomenon of ""contracting-out"" security that has resulted in greater numbers of contractors in Iraq and Afghanistan than uniformed military personnel. <BR
