PREFACE
A brief history of the origins and development of this bibliography may help potential readers and users judge its value for their purposes. In graduate school during the 1960s I became interested in the fundamental question that was then generally identified as “the rise of the West.” It seemed to me then, as it does now, that a major part of the explanation lay with some unique characteristics of European military institutions. Framed in that way, the question clearly demanded comparative analysis. Standard military history provided little help with nonwestern military institutions. For one thing, military historians were far more interested in refighting past battles than they were in understanding the place of military institutions in society. For another, they followed the common view of a straight-line historical development from the Greeks to us, with the rest of the world brought in from the wings as foes, victims, or, occasionally, conquerors. These remarks only slightly overstate the problem. That situation, I might add, has changed markedly since the mid-1960s. My first taste of teaching military history in the early 1970s helped me clarify my thinking about these problems. Organizing my courses around the study of military institutions rather than wars forced me to seek materials far removed from conventional military history textbooks. In particular, I had begun to locate a growing body of literature on the origin of the state, which often seemed to implicate “militarism,” the make-do term for the central place of military institutions in society—English has no convenient term corresponding to army as “naval” corresponds to “navy.” In addition to looking for what might be available on the history of military traditions other than Western, I also began to explore the place of war and military institutions in the history of social thought. By the late 1970s I had identified and examined a substantial number of books and articles though I had yet to undertake any comprehensive search. In 1978 I began the systematic compilation that led to the present bibliography. It assumed its present form, however, only gradually as I worked my way through the books and bound periodicals of two university research libraries, first at the
x
University of Nevada Las Vegas, then at Oregon State University, Corvallis. My extensive travels throughout the 1980s and early 1990s also allowed me to locate materials at a number of other libraries throughout the United States. This bibliography focuses on studies of preclassical and indigenous nonwestern military institutions published from 1967 to 1997. Studies of particular battles or wars appear only to the extent that I judged them to illuminate military institutions. Although I have included sections on Classical antiquity and post-Roman European institutions, references in these areas have more been noted in passing than subject to systematic collection. That they are nonetheless so numerous reflects the obvious fact that far more is published in these areas than any others. Much the same is true for the late 20th century. Once indigenous military institutions have given way to Western model armed forces, a transition period that varies chronologically from region to region, their study increasingly shifts from history to social science. In most instances, that begins after World War II. I have made no great effort to follow reprintings, paperback editions, or other forms of republication of the items listed, but I do mention those I have discovered. Except in a few instances where the changes seem significant, I have made little effort to keep up with new editions of textbooks. Entries marked with an asterisk (*) are works I know only by reference. Time and circumstances have not permitted me to examine every item personally. Rather than omit potentially useful references that may be incomplete, I have included them with this identification. Included in this category are entries taken from reviews in scholarly journals, reference works, and bibliographies, notably Dissertation Abstracts International and The American Historical Association’s Guide to Historical Literature: Third Edition, edited by Mary Beth Norton and Pamela Gerardi (2 volumes; New York and Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1995); cited as AHA Guide, preceded by the initials of the compiler. The starting date for this bibliography, 1967, is to some degree arbitrary, but it also reflects a real historiographical event. At about that time there seems to me to have been a significant shift in the character of academic studies of military institutions in both history and the social sciences. I have discussed this change more fully in two articles cited here: “Military Institutions and Social Order: Transformations of Western Thought since the Enlightenment” and “Military
xi
Institutions, Weapons, and Social Change: Toward a New History of Military Technology.” The terminal date is merely convenient. Any essentially single-handed effort like this one is bound to have errors both of commission and omission. We (the publisher and I) intend to produce periodic supplements to this bibliography covering new literature, which will also allow us to correct and expand the core bibliography. We intend as well to publish a companion bibliography covering works published before 1967. To these ends, I urge users of this bibliography to contact me with any suggestions they may have.

Scholarly and popular studies of warfare and weaponry in prehistory, from earliest times to the Neolithic.

New York: Facts On File, 1995. “Inter-societal exchange systems between hunter-gatherers and farmers, and among hunter-gatherers themselves, are currently the subject of much discussion in the literature. Socio-economic stresses encourage reciprocity in exchange or warfare. Such situations either develop mutual dependence on a steady supply of food, raw materials, labor and commodities or lead to conquest. However, the evidence for extensive or intensive warfare is as yet missing from the archaeological record.” (199)

Excavation of the pre-Harappan Kot Diji culture (2500–2000 B.C.) revealed a substantial fortification wall (338–39); other pre-Harappan fortification at Kalibangan (344–45). Just as Wheeler’s identification of fortifications at Harappa and Mohenjodaro had overthrown Marshall’s hypothesis of a peaceful people living in unwalled cities, these new discoveries question Wheeler’s suggested overthrow of Harappan civilization by the Aryans, since Harappa itself may have been the wall destroyer.

In precontact Papua New Guinea, regular female labor allows males to engage in irregular feasting and warfare; the pattern persists, though new activities have replaced war. Women sometimes fought but usually participated in endemic warfare by inciting men; on long raids they carried food and armor (492).

STATE ORIGINS
The origins of military institutions and of the state. This section of the bibliography covers topics primarily theoretical, comprehensive, or comparative, including the roles of armed force and warfare in the development of chiefdoms and more complex polities, of social stratification, ranking, and hierarchy, and of other forms of social complexity linked to state formation and early development. Also included are works on the origin of individual states if intended to support generalizations.

School of American Research Advanced Seminar Series. Albuquerque: University of New Mexico Press, 1975. Initial theocratic organization in emerging states tends to be prolonged in pristine settings, but shortened in secondary state origins because of the more dangerous predatory environment, and giving way more quickly to secular political-military control (455, 462–64).

Carneiro, American Anthropologist 99 (1997): 204–205. “The most salient archaeological feature Gilman reports is the large number of fortifications . . . reflecting a ‘clear concern for defense’ (p. 244). . . . Moreover, ‘That the rich were buried with their weapons . . . suggests that their part in that strife helped them obtain their relatively privileged positions’ (p. 249). . . . There is powerful evidence, then, that in Bronze Age Albacete [province, Spain], warfare, leading to the accumulation of power and wealth by successful military leaders, was responsible for the rise of chiefdoms and the development of social inequality. . . . But in the end, he [Gilman] is too tied to . . . [marxist economic interpretation] . . . embrace a warfare-and-conquest theory.” (205)
