Professor Risa Brooks from Marquette University will give a presentation at the MIT Security Studies Program's Wednesday Seminar. Summary: The paper that Professor Brooks will present in this seminar explains how political leaders transform professional militaries into partisan aligned forces in eroding democracies. Building from theories of norm change, it conceptualizes the process as one of "norm replacement," using examples from the United States and beyond to illustrate the argument.
