Description

Explore the changing landscape of global defense with Mercenaries, Hybrid Armies and National Security. Part of the LSE International Studies Series, this book examines how states use mercenaries and integrate them into national armed forces. As Western governments face unprecedented demilitarization and military budget cuts, a new trend of hybridization has emerged. This text investigates the shift toward opening national armies to foreign nationals and the increasing reliance on outsourcing military operations to private companies. By comparing and contrasting different models, the book analyzes how these changes affect the core values, cohesion, and effectiveness of modern armed forces. It is an essential resource for understanding the evolution of military structures and the impact of private soldiers on state security in the 21st century.
