O. Dunivin, Lieutenant Colonel, Usa, B. K. (n.d.). Military Culture A Paradigm Shift?. Retrieved from http://gutenberg.cc/


Description
In this study, Lt Col Karen O. Dunivin, USAF, examines social change in American military culture and explores the current struggle between the military’s traditional and exclusionary combat, masculine-warrior (CMW) paradigm or belief system and the contradictory evolving model of military culture characterized by egalitarianism and inclusiveness. It is a contest between old thinking and new thinking. The author uses two recent and ongoing cases to illustrate the divergence between paradigm and model: women in combat and homosexuals in the military.
