Journal Article
MODERN HISTORY AND POLITICS-Armies and State-Building in the Modern Middle East: Politics, Nationalism and Military Reform
2014
Overview
Key among the limitations are the \"need for more regular and larger fiscal sources for the new regiments\" which the states have historically been unable to meet (p. 18); conflicts between domestic winners and losers from the military modernization/state-building undertaking, with rulers at the center being resisted by peripheral, traditional notables; and endemic disagreements between national rulers seeking to build their personal power bases upon large conscript based militaries modernized with the assistance of foreigners, and the foreign providers of that military technical assistance, who typical prefer smaller, more professional militaries over which they may continue to exert influence.
