We Don't Want YOU, Uncle Sam: Examining the Military Recruiting Crisis with Generation Z Paperback – July 31, 2023

by Matthew Weiss (Author)

Purchase options and add-ons

This is what generation Z is saying with respect to military service.

The all-volunteer force that has served our country well for more than 50 years is at a critical inflection point. Today, recruiters are struggling to bring enough Zoomers into the armed services. Mismatched fundamental ideals, divergent beliefs about the workplace, and other sociocultural influences have contributed to the United States military scrambling to get a grasp on how to appeal to Gen Z.

Through the use of personal life stories and macro analysis, this book
explains why military recruiting in the United States is at an all-time low in order to suggest ways that American society and its leaders can fix this issue. We must rebuild the value proposition of military service by
demonstrating the benefits of the world’s greatest physical social network.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"We Don't Want You, Uncle Sam is an impeccably researched and thoughtful guide not just for military leaders, but for leaders of all institutions seeking to understand and engage an inspired generation and repair our nation's divides."
—JOHN DELLA VOLPE, Director of Polling, Harvard Kennedy School Institute of Politics

"The U.S. military is in the throes of a sustained recruiting and retention crisis. Sustaining a viable force will require fresh thinking and innovative proposals. In this brilliant and timely book, Matthew Weiss offers an abundance of both."
—ANDREW BACEVICH, Chairman and Co-Founder, Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft
