Michael Roberts launched his celebrated "Military Revolution" idea in a lecture delivered at the Queen's University, Belfast, fifty years ago. To commemorate this event, and to reflect its continuing impact, Geoffrey Parker—himself a participant in the debate—reviews recent "special issues" of two journals, one published in Catalonia and the other in the Netherlands, devoted to the military history of early modern Europe.
