War Plc The Rise Of The New Corporate Mercenary

"The 'war on terror' and its lucrative contracts have fuelled the massive expansion of corporate security contractors. Now their plans are more ambitious - to offer governments and corporations discrete and well-trained private armies. With democracies unwilling to see their children die for vague strategic reasons in dusty foreign lands, corporate soldiers are part of the last great outsourcing - the privatisation of war. This book examines how we got here, how these companies operate, and how close we are to letting them run our battlefields."--Jacket.
