Description: This study offers an analysis of elites in military history. It illuminates, through a combination of overview and case study, a historical subject that has profound implications for the development of specialised forces in the post-Cold War era.
Synopsis: From Thermopylae to Belfast, elite military formations have been deployed against conventional or irregular forces. This study offers a superb analysis of elites in military history. A collection of brilliant studies by distinguished scholars, it illuminates, through a combination of overview and case study, a historical subject that has profound implications for the development of specialized forces in the post-Cold War Era. The study uses a comparative approach which investigates the topic over time and across culture.
