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