Was ist das Besondere militarischer Organisationen? Wie funktionieren sie? Warum sind Menschen bereit, sich einer solchen Organisation zu unterziehen und das eigene Leben aufs Spiel zu setzen oder das Leben anderer zu bedrohen? Wie begreift die Soziologie das Verhaltnis von Krieg und moderner Gesellschaft? Wie verandert der Krieg die Gesellschaft? Welche Auswirkungen haben Kriege auf die Soldaten? Und wie verandert sich soldatisches Handeln in den Neuen Kriegen? Die Autorinnen und Autoren des Sammelbandes bieten Denkanstösse zu den genannten Fragen und zeigen, wie sich die neuere soziologische Forschung diesen Fragen stellt.
