"This is a hugely important topic. Karlin brings the research excellence of a scholar and the experience of a practitioner to bear as she analyzes a type of conflict that will likely remain a critical area for U.S. foreign and defense policy over the next generation."--Michael Horowitz, University of Pennsylvania, " Building Militaries in Fragile States tackles one of the most important security problems facing the United States today. Karlin's work is thoughtful, informed, and compelling."--Daniel Byman, Georgetown University, "Mara E. Karlin combines rigorous scholarship with the knowledge and expertise gained from years of working on the front lines of Defense Department policy managing American military aid to states under enormous stress. This formidably written book has much to say to practitioners and scholars alike: it offers exceptional insight into an activity that the United States will engage in for decades to come."--Eliot A.
