Author Description

"Women in the military and their relationship with war are subjects that often provoke controversial reactions that reveal entrenched stereotypes and cultural values central to many societies." "This new study employs mixed-methodological research design. Unlike previous works, it focuses on the interplay of various analytical levels (general societal trends, organizational features, and individual orientations) and combines quantitative and qualitative data: a large N-analysis based on general policies and statistical information concerning every country in the sample with more in-depth case studies."--Jacket.
