Commercializing Cosmopolitan Security

Mehr zum Buch

Focusing on the themes of humanitarian intervention and security privatization, the book explores the responsibility to protect (R2P) in the context of state failure and crises. It examines the civil-military dynamics that hinder effective state intervention and questions whether private military contractors could serve as better agents for humanitarian efforts. By analyzing the contractor's professional identity and ethical implications, the author argues for their potential role in achieving more favorable outcomes in international crises. This work is vital for scholars in various fields of international studies.
