The state monopoly of force has increasingly been challenged by
non-state actors, seemingly resulting in a loss of control and
resources needed to guarantee security. Yet, non-state actors are
not only a cause of problems; they can also contribute to guarantee
security. The contributors examine the role of non-state actors in
the governance of violence and crime. Current research on non-state
actors in security points to the fact that the state monopoly of
force has increasingly been challenged, seemingly resulting in a
loss of control and resources. In contrast, this volume shows how
non-state actors are involved in supporting governmental aims, what
they contribute and where the limits are or should be. It
demonstrates that even in a core area of the state, transnational
governance is possible through the activities of a diverse group of
actors, including warlords, rebel groups, criminals,
non-governmental organizations and businesses.
