Beschreibung

This longitudinal study has followed nineteen
Swedish service members as they have transitioned from
military to civilian life and grappled with their own
questions of losing profound military identities,
communities, meanings, and purposes in life, in addition to
exploring alternate cultural identities. The findings
present existential, implicit religious and spiritual ways
of reconsidering the uniform through new and/or preexisting
identities.
