This essay explores how they crucially stretched the notion of non-dominating freedom across the social order and applied it more generally to the army’s social and political contexts. It then turns to how this understanding of freedom informed the army’s view of social justice, shaping the soldiers’ particular grievances and material demands. Finally, it considers how the concept of independence also enabled religious apologists for the army to advance new claims to self-authenticating institutional legitimacy. – Reproduced  aJournal of The History of Ideas  aARMED FORCES cAR 00102ddc40709391447aIIPAbIIPAd2021-07-12h81(4), Oct, 2020: 531-553pAR124720r2021-07-12yAR
