Corporatism and Security Sector Reform

The main objective of the book is to analyse, from a
cross-regional
comparative perspective, the relationship between the
corporatist
features and civil-military relations in two
democratising countries,
Romania and Brazil. I choose Romania and Brazil
because these two
countries presented peculiar features regarding the
civil-military
arrangements within their own regions, and, in
addition, these
countries share a particular heritage regarding the
corporatist
arrangements both in terms
of intellectual-cultural legacy and contingent
decisions. On the one
hand, this study aims to provide an answer to the
current appeals
for
new analytical perspectives within the literature. On
the other hand,
the book will survey neglected features of
corporatism and
corporatist elements, namely those regarding the
civil-military
relations and
national security policy in two of the largest
democratizing societies
in
Latin America and post-communist Europe.
