Small wars a term originally used by the British to categorize their colonial campaigns pose special military problems for "democracies," argues Inbar (political studies, Bar-Ilan U., Israel), because they "have greater constraints on their freedom of action as they have to meet constitutional, legal, and moral criteria in their use of force.." He presents four theoretical essays and seven case studies in how "democracies" have fought small wars. Distributed by ISBS. Annotation (c) Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
