Summary, etc. Study of the evolution, scale, roles and functions of private security companies since the 1960s. Identifies three broad strands of PSC involvement in civil wars: substituting for state military forces, supporting weak governments, and supplementing state militaries. Notes that all of these raise moral and legal questions, as well as challenges for government, and that these matters will become more important as governments make increasing use of PSCs.
