Preferred term

civil-military relations  

Definition(s)

  • Civil-military relations concern the interaction of the military and the state or, more broadly, between armed forces and society. The relationship between civil authority and the military has evolved along with the nature of states, societies, war, and the military profession, but the basic dilemma remains the same: ensuring protection by and from the armed forces.
