In 1973 Alfred Stepan published an article with the descriptive title "The New Professionalism of Internal Warfare and Military Role Expansion." In this article, he used the cases of Brazil and Peru to discuss "how the ideology of new professionalism arose and how it contributed to the expansion of the military's role in politics." He proposed to do this by identifying "some of the institutional and political variables that are peculiar to Brazil and that help account for some of the special characteristics of the present military regime" (1973). He then set out the paradigms of the "old professionalism" as formulated in the carefully constructed analysis of Samuel P. Huntington (1957) and compared these to the stated missions and observed activities of the Brazilian army in the 1960s. This comparison led him to conclude that because the army's missions and activities were clearly different from those in the Huntington model they must flow from a different definition of the military profession rather than merely being lapses from the "old professionalism" (Stepan, 1973: 48
