This monograph examines the militaries of Nigeria, Argentina, Egypt and India in times of crisis to challenge these assumptions. The book shows that despite having broad similarities, each of these states had unique characteristics that impacted their military effectiveness in different ways. These key variables included the military institutions? maturity and skill sets, the availability and management of human and material resources, and the quality of both civil and military leadership. 410 0$aHistory of Warfare$v88. 606 $aArmed Forces$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aCommand of troops$vCase studies 606 $aMilitary art and science$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aMilitary readiness$vCase studies 606 $aPostcolonialism$vCase studies 615 0$aArmed Forces$xHistory 615 0$aCommand of troops 615 0$aMilitary art and science$xHistory 615 0$aMilitary readiness 615 0$aPostcolonialism 676 $a355/.0332 700 $aBarua$b Pradeep$01655758 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811591803321 996 $aThe military effectiveness of post-colonial states$94008271 997 $aUNINA
