Military Missions and Their Implications Reconsidered: The Aftermath of September 11th

Since the suicide terrorist attacks of September Eleven security issues have become more prominent again, there is also an increased interest in the military since the military was and still is seen as a major instrument in the so-called, 'war on terror'. The anthology focuses on the most recent developments in the military sphere and tries to assess the impact of September Eleven and the 'new military missions' on the armed forces in terms of, inter alia, conflict management capabilities, social and psychological developments inside military units, recruitment and civil-military relations of the armed forces in the wake of September 11th.
