Reviews

'Dearing has done an outstanding job of weaving together a wide range of critical themes relevant to militias and state institution building that offer very valuable insights to both policy and academic worlds. .. The lessons of history are evident as Dearing’s excellent scholarship makes clear: no success or progress is possible if the legitimate interests and security concerns of at-risk communities are not kept in view.'--from the Foreword by Hassan Abbas, National Defense University, Washington DC, USA
