The Cosmopolitan Military: Armed Forces and Human Security in the 21st Century

by Jonathan Gilmore

What role should national militaries play in an increasingly globalised and interdependent world? This book examines the often difficult transition they have made toward missions aimed at protecting civilians and promoting human security, and asks whether we might expect the emergence of armed forces that exist to serve the wider human community.
