Scholars have long appreciated a variety of ways in which relations between civilian political leaders and military commanders, military forces, and military doctrines can affect foreign policy choices and behavior. Only recently, however, have scholars attempted to think about these in general theo- retical terms, and for the most part they have focused their attention on civil-military relations in the United States, and primarily in the context of the cold war. The question arises whether insights from existing work on civil-military rela- tions can help us understand international relations in the Asia-Pacific region in a post-cold war context in which the “war on terror,” nation building, and problems of nonprolif- eration dominate states’ foreign-policy agendas. This article and the one following seek to address these issues.
