  • The State of the US Military
    About the Contributing Organizations The American Enterprise Institute (AEI) is a community of scholars and supporters committed to expanding liberty, increasing individual opportunity, and strengthening free enterprise. AEI pursues these unchanging ideals through independent thinking, open debate, reasoned argument, facts, and the highest standards of research and exposition. Without regard for politics or prevailing fashion, we dedicate our work to a more prosperous, safer, and more democratic nation and world. The Foreign Policy Initiative (FPI) is a nonprofit think tank that promotes continued US engagement— diplomatic, economic, and military—in the world and robust support for America’s democratic allies and opposition to rogue regimes that threaten American interests. Additionally, FPI supports the human rights of those oppressed by their governments, and US leadership in working to spread political and economic freedom. We recognize the need for a strong military with the defense budget needed to ensure that America is ready to confront the threats of the 21st century. FPI seeks to work with all who share these objectives, irrespective of political party, so that the United States successfully confronts its challenges and make progress toward a freer and more secure future. Points of Contact AEI: Mackenzie Eaglen | 202.862.5800 | www.aei.org FPI: David Adesnik | 202.296.3322 | www.foreignpolicyi.org This version has been revised since the initial printing. 1 Introduction An analysis of the defense budget does not fully capture the state of the US military.

  • Civilian Control and the Military in Policymaking
    The Scholar EROSION BY DEFERENCE: CIVILIAN CONTROL AND THE MILITARY IN POLICYMAKING Polina Beliakova 55 Erosion by Deference: Civilian Control and the Military in Policymaking Delegating policymaking functions to members of the military profession can undermine civilian control in democracies, and yet democratic leaders continue to do just this. So why do leaders of democratic states delegate policymaking responsibilities to the military? Existing research does not provide a comprehensive answer to this question. To shed light on this understudied phenomenon, I advance a new concept of erosion of civilian control by deference. Using the Trump presidency as a case study, and considering additional evidence from the Clinton and Bush (43) administrations, I investigate three drivers of deference — boosting approval, avoiding responsibility, and cajoling the military. Relying on qualitative and quantitative analysis, I also show how deference to the military eroded civilian control under the Trump administration. “[I]f you want to get into a debate with a four- Specifically, the increased reliance on the military star Marine general, I think that that’s something in policymaking became a salient feature of U.S. highly inappropriate.” civil-military relations during the Trump admin- — Sarah Sanders, White House Press Secretary1 istration and is likely to have lasting consequenc- es.
