The Project on the Gap Between the Military and the Civilian Society Thursday, November 18, 1999 Featured Speaker: Dr. Peter Feaver In the second luncheon of the National Security Seminar Series, Dr. Peter Feaver discussed the results and implications of the research initiative, "The Project on the Gap between the Military and the Civilian Society." This study, conducted over a period of two years by a large team of scholars, was an effort to compare the values, attitudes, opinions, perspectives, and behaviors of the American military and civilian society. The results of the study were presented, along with an assessment of potential implications for national security, particularly military effectiveness and civil-military cooperation. Dr. Feaver's (Ph.D., Harvard, 1990) area of expertise is international relations and national security studies. He has published numerous works on nuclear proliferation, civil-military relations, information warfare, and U.S. national security. Dr. Feaver, co-director of the study, has held post-doctoral fellowships at the Olin Institute at Harvard, the Mershon Center at Ohio State, the Council on Foreign Relations, and the McArthur Foundation. From 1993-94, he served as Director for Defense Policy and Arms Control on the National Security Council.
