Table of ContentsReviewsThe Commander's Dilemma is a must-read book that makes a novel contribution to the literature of civilian victimization during civil war. Focusing on repertoires of armed group violence, Hoover Green focuses on the links between political education and practices of both violence and restraint. Beyond the fact that the analysis and findings are compelling, Hoover Green also provides a model for how an author can engage in ethical and personal reflections while presenting a coherent and well-defended argument. I highly recommend it. -- Erica Chenoweth, Professor at the Josef Korbel School of International Studies, University of Denver, and coauthor of the award-winning <I>Why Civil Resistance Works: The Strategic Logic of Nonviolent Conflict</I> Amelia Hoover Green's project has been carried through with scrupulous attention to detail. I am extremely impressed by the care with which Hoover Green developed her theory on how military commanders succeed (or fail) in socializing soldiers to exercise violence in battle yet treat civilians in a deliberately nonviolent way. -- Leigh Binford, Professor of Sociology and Anthropology, College of Staten Island, City University of New York, and coeditor of Landscapes of Struggle: Politics, Community, and the Nation-State in Twentieth Century El Salvador The Commander's Dilemma is a must-read book that makes a novel contribution to the literature of civilian victimization during civil war.
