Greek Americans
This is an engrossing account of Greek Americans their history, strengths, conflicts, aspirations, and contributions. Blending sociological insight with historical detail, Peter C. and Charles C. Moskos trace the Greek-American experience from the wave of mass immigration in the early 1900s to today. This is the story of immigrants, most of whom worked hard to secure middle-class status. It is also the story of their children and grandchildren, m…
The All-Volunteer Military
Discussion of the future of the armed forces usually involves a concern with technological developments or global strategy. To most of its membership, however, the military is understood and experienced as a social organization. Our purpose here is to apply developmental analysis to the emergent military from a sociological perspective. Developmental analysis entails historical reconstruction, trend specification, and most especially, a model of …
Socializing with Soldiers
A New Concept of the Citizen-Soldier
What Ails the All-Volunteer Force
The state of the armed forces became a distinct point of contention in the 2000 presidential campaign. The campaign saw the two major party candidates give differing interpretations as to the capabilities, morale, and readiness of the military. At the same time, students of armed forces and society have been pointing to a growing civil-military gap. Most members of the armed forces understand and experience the military as a social organization. …

All That We Can Be
Humanitarians or Warriors
Operation Restore Hope was a confusing mission for American soldiers. Trained aswarriors, they were thrust into a humanitarian mission. Expecting to distribute food tograteful Somalis, they were attacked instead by the locals and were limited to security and guard duty. Soldiers' attitudes evolved through three stages: high expectations, disillusionment, and reconsideration. In the last stage, soldiers adopted one of two frameworks to cope with t…

Institutional/Occupational Trends in Armed Forces
Since its introduction in 1977, the institutional/occupational (I/O) thesis has generated a growing body of international research. The basic proposition is that the military is moving from an institutional to an occupational format. The thesis is brought up to date by greater specification of I/O variables in military organization. Variables include legitimacy, role commitments, compensation systems, spouse, reference groups, legal system, and p…

The American Combat Soldier in Vietnam
A sociological assessment of the attitudes and behavior of American combat soldiers over the course of the war in Vietnam suggests that primary‐group interpretations of combat behavior must be modified, that combat groups were characterized by instrumental relationships and affected by latent ideological factors, and that the 12‐month rotation cycle was the dominating feature of the Vietnam combat experience. Troop demoralization was accentuated …

Racial Integration in the Armed Forces
The transformation of the armed forces from a toally segregated to a fully integrated institution is an impressive achievement in directed social change. Yet within the military establishment there is cross-service variation in the distribution of Negro personnel. Concomitanth with desegregation have come morefavorable attitudes by white soldiers toward integration, improved performance of Negroes, and careers at enlisted levels becoming avenues …

The Concept of the Military-Industrial Complex
The concept of the military-industrial complex, rather than being a radical departure from conventional sociology, is, instead, a quite logical development within the mainstream of American political sociological theory. The development of the concept is traced not only to C. Wright Mills' “power elite” but beyond to Harold Lasswell's “garrison state” and James Burnham's “managerial revolution.” Ultimately, the concept of the military-industrial …
The American Dilemma in Uniform
The transformation of the armed forces from a segregated to an integrated institution was an impressive achievement in directed social change. Yet in the present period the relationship between white and black servicemen is characterized by polarization with attendant interracial conflict. Data are presented which show an overconcentration of blacks in the combat arms as well as substantial cross-service variation in the distribution of black per…

Attitudes towards Democracy among Leaders in Four Emergent Nations
NEAR THE END of the eighteenth century the words 'liberal', 'radical', and 'progressive' did not exist, but their meanings were contained within the term 'democrat' which was just then coming into popular usage. 'When moderates or conservatives wished to indicate the dangerous drift of the times, or when the more advanced spirits spoke of themselves, they might very well use the words democrat or democracy.'2 Today, in the latter half of the twen…
