This book develops a new concept - ‘martial culture’ – with which to problematize and reframe thinking surrounding the lifeways of US servicemembers, following the values, beliefs, norms, and rituals they are exposed to upon entering military service.
This book develops a new concept—“martial culture”—with which to problematize and reframe thinking surrounding the lifeways of US servicemembers, by exploring the values, beliefs, norms, and rituals they are exposed to and practice during military service.

By reuniting the two concepts of servicemember and veteran into one overarching cultural model, the author shows how the concept of martial culture can be used to acknowledge the unbroken, holistic, multidimensional life cycle of an individual. Adopting a comparative mythological approach and drawing upon Roman, Navajo, Hindu, Norse, and Japanese myths that speak to the lived experiences of servicemembers, veterans, and their families, it weaves together ancient voices and contemporary servicemember experiential existences to offer new insight into the psychological experience of servicemembers.

It will be of strong interest to psychologists who seek to develop their treatment of veterans by understanding the unique lifeway of service without judgement and offering a balanced, integrated spiritual connection, while pushing back against both inaccurate assumptions of martial lifeways and the influences of industrialized secular approaches to service. It will also appeal to those within the fields of military sociology and psychology.

Nathan J. Hogan obtained his PhD in Mythological Studies with emphasis in Depth Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute, USA. He served 22 years of active service in the US Air Force and Army, and his research interests include mythology, history, and the intersection of human belief and behavior.
