En savoir plus sur le livre
This handbook introduces current sociological and behavioral research on the impacts of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, two significant and complex events of recent decades. Despite their similar beginnings, these wars elicited different responses from the public and media, profoundly affecting military personnel, their families, and the populations of Iraq and Afghanistan. The volume is organized into four main parts: the effects of combat and its aftermath, non-combat operations and their impact on non-combatants, the social construction of war and its narratives, and the experiences of families and youth on the home front. Featuring contributions from leading academic sociologists, anthropologists, psychologists, military researchers, and NGO affiliates, this work will appeal to students and scholars of military sociology, psychology, war studies, anthropology, US politics, and youth studies. Steven Carlton-Ford, an associate professor of Sociology at the University of Cincinnati and former editor of Sociological Focus, and Morten G. Ender, a professor of sociology at West Point and author of American Soldiers in Iraq, bring their expertise to this comprehensive examination of the wars' societal effects.
