Product Information

How do armies fight and what makes them victorious on the modern battlefield? In Divided Armies , Jason Lyall challenges long-standing answers to this classic question by linking the fate of armies to their levels of inequality. Introducing the concept of military inequality, Lyall demonstrates how a state's prewar choices about the citizenship status of ethnic groups within its population determine subsequent battlefield performance. Treating certain ethnic groups as second-class citizens, either by subjecting them to state-sanctioned discrimination or, worse, violence, undermines interethnic trust, fuels grievances, and leads victimized soldiers to subvert military authorities once war begins. The higher an army's inequality, Lyall finds, the greater its rates of desertion, side-switching, casualties, and use of coercion to force soldiers to fight. In a sweeping historical investigation, Lyall draws on Project Mars, a new dataset of 250 conventional wars fought since 1800, to test this argument. Project Mars breaks with prior efforts by including overlooked non-Western wars while cataloguing new patterns of inequality and wartime conduct across hundreds of belligerents. Combining historical comparisons and statistical analysis, Lyall also marshals evidence from nine wars, ranging from the Eastern Fronts of World Wars I and II to less familiar wars in Africa and Central Asia, to illustrate inequality's effects. Sounding the alarm on the dangers of inequality for battlefield performance, Divided Armies offers important lessons about warfare over the past two centuries--and for wars still to come.

Reviews
An extraordinary achievement, providing new ideas about the non-material determinants of battlefield performance, and presenting compelling quantitative and qualitative evidence. It will no doubt shape research agendas on war for many years to come., " Divided armies is a ground-breaking work of social science and military history ... Given the impressive data and analysis supporting Lyall's findings, this argument merits the attention and consideration of strategists, military leaders and defence policy-makers" ---Jordan Becker, International Affairs, "An inviting and challenging read, one that necessitates and rewards thoughtful investment." ---Dr. Larry D. Miller, National Defense University Press, "For those who are interested in understanding the workings of armed forces throughout time and space, this book will be an essential touchstone, regardless of methodological background." ---Patrick Finnegan, War in History, " Divided Armies dives headlong into 250 conventional conflicts since 1800 and comes out with highly impressive arguments for the strength of a unified and inclusive society. The book also stands apart from much of recent military science in that it takes a truly global view of the issue, avoiding the traps of a western-focused approach. . . . extremely valuable reading." ---Lewis Tallon, Encyclopedia Geopolitica, "A welcome mingling of the traditions of quantitative and qualitative political science. He sets a rigorous and imaginative methodological standard that others will struggle to match." ---Lawrence D. Freedman, Foreign Affairs, "Perhaps the most thorough look at how cohesion has made some armies and fighting forces stronger than others . . . . I view this more as a cohesion story than an 'inequality' story (current U.S. forces seem pretty sharp) . . . . A good integration of military history with modern social science." ---Tyler Cowen, Marginal Revolution, A major contribution to any literature that seeks to understand military design or behavior. . . . [Lyall's] valuable empirical work and data collection - and clear methodology - will provide numerous avenues for further research to anyone with an interest in civil-military relations and conflict.--Max Margulies, Political Science Quarterly, "In Divided Armies , Lyall's argument about the link between military inequality and military effectiveness is smart and novel. The data gathering is extremely impressive, as is the care given to the qualitative and quantitative assessments. I highly recommend it." --Michael C. Horowitz, University of Pennsylvania, Winner of the Best Book Award, Conflict Processes Section of the American Political Science Association, "A data-driven political science exploration of what makes for war-winning armies. Much military analysis of unit cohesion argues against diversity, and Lyall shows the counter case: that political and social inclusiveness is the dominant factor in willingness to fight." ---Kori Schake, War on the Rocks, "The book provides the theoretical basis for an intuitively grasped characteristic of armed forces around the world today and through history. Its argument should inform future policymaking, as well serve as a basis to re-examine past wars." ---Axel Dessein, Wavell Room, "Ambitious in scope, Divided Armies offers a new theory for an important subject: battlefield military effectiveness in conventional wars from the 1800s to the present. Marshaling an impressive array of empirical evidence to support his arguments, Lyall addresses a topic that will interest policymakers, scholars, and readers from a variety of disciplines." --Jasen J. Castillo, Texas A&M University
