Cornelia Baciu is a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Foreign Policy Institute at Johns Hopkins University, Washington, DC, USA, where she was a 2019– 2020 DAAD Fellow in the programme ‘United States, Europe, and World Order’. She is the co-editor, with John Doyle, of Peace, Security and Defence Cooperation in Post-Brexit Europe (2019) and the Director of the Research Network ‘European Security and Strategy’.

This book is a valuable contribution to the renaissance in civil-military relations scholarship. Baciu takes her place among a new generation of specialists who are refining the concepts and expanding the empirical domain that undergird our understanding of what makes for effective civilian control. She shows that traditional approaches to security sector reform by outsiders like the EU have had mixed results in Pakistan and suggests that an approach more focused on civilian development and empowerment might work better."Peter D.
