Resumo

Este artigo discute a experiência miliciana nas colônias inglesas da América do Norte e nos Estados Unidos durante a primeira república. Enfatizo o papel do antimilitarismo como principal aspecto da experiência militar anglo-americana. Relaciono essa perspectiva à aversão ao despotismo, derivada da tradição política inglesa e ao controle civil sobre os militares. Sublinho as dificuldades encontradas para a criação de um exército profissional e os problemas de coordenação entre o poder central e as autoridades locais e estaduais.
