Article: What If New Zealand Were to Abolish Its Military

Article: What If New Zealand Were to Abolish Its Military - The world should read a new book from New Zealand called Abolishing the Military. New Zealand has decidedly not yet followed Costa Rica and stashed its military in a museum. And were it to do so, I can virtually guarantee you that CNN would never mention the act. But the argument for doing so is powerfully laid out in this book and -- whether the authors mean it to or not -- applies with very slight tweaking to any nation.
