Military Organization as a Response to Residence and Size of Population: A Cross-Cultural Study

Abstract

This paper presents the results of a cross-cultural test; the test supports a theory of cultural adaptation relating post marital residence and popu lation size to type of military organization. The theory predicts that societies with uxorilocal/matrilocal residence or which are large are more likely to have professional military organizations than are those with virilocal/patrilocal residence and those which are small.
