The Soldier and the State
- The Soldier and the State
"The Soldier and the State: The Theory and Politics of Civil-Military Relations" is a 1957 book written by political scientist Samuel P. Huntington. In the book, Huntington advances the theory of objective civilian control, according to which the optimal means of asserting control over the armed forces is to professionalize them. This is in contrast to subjective control, which involves placing legal and institutional restrictions on the military's autonomy.
