Description

Explore the shifting landscape of modern defense through War as Business: Technological Change and Military Service Contracting. Published by Routledge, this book examines the growing trend of outsourcing military services from armed forces to the private sector. It provides a deep look into how the privatization of defense assets has transformed since the early 1990s. This study connects the evolution of defense industries to the increasing reliance on private contractors. Readers will find detailed information regarding the extent to which military functions are now handled by external entities. The text covers a wide range of outsourced activities, including military research, consulting, training, and operational support services across both the US and Europe. It serves as a vital resource for understanding the ongoing changes in how nations manage military functions and defense industry transformations.
