520    "Fighting for a living investigates the circumstances that
       have produced starkly different systems of recruiting and 
       employing soldiers in different parts of the globe, over 
       the last 500 years. Offering a wide range of case studies 
       taken from Europe, America, the Middle East and Asia, this
       volume is not military history in the traditional sense, 
       but looks at military service and warfare as forms of 
       labour, and at soldiers as workers. Military employment 
       offers excellent opportunities for international 
       comparison: armies as a form of organized violence are 
       ubiquitous, and soldiers, in one form or another, are 
       always part of the picture, in any period and in every 
       region. Fighting for a living is the first study to 
       undertake a systematic comparative analysis of military 
       labour. It therefore will be of interest to both labour 
       historians and military historians, as well as to 
       sociologists, political scientists, and other social 
       scientists"--Page 4 of cover.
