The proliferation of drones to violent nonstate actors/ Kerry Chávez - 2021

Mainly focuses on states' use, sidestepping the consequential proliferation of drone technology to violent nonstate actors (VNSAs). Meanwhile, an increasing corpus of media, military, and policy publications underscores the latter's importance. The source of the gap is that existing proliferation models overlook civilian drone technologies. Applying supply- and demand-side proliferation models, confirm conventional wisdom that military-grade drones are not likely to proliferate to VNSAs.
