This book considers the growing importance of private military companies and efforts to regulate their activities. Private actors are thought by some to be mercenaries; others see them as the market's response to a security vacuum. This book looks at the use of potentially lethal force by non-state actors; how this has differed in situations such as Sierra Leone and Iraq; what rules currently constrain the behaviour of private military companies; and what forcesshape the development of this new market.
