The Politics of Private Security is the first in-depth conceptual
and empirical analysis of the political issues, processes and
themes associated with private security provision. It not only
offers a new narrative about the rise of private security in the
postwar era, but also facilitates the development of a much more
sophisticated social-scientific understanding of this significant
trend. Drawing upon a wealth of historical and contemporary data,
it advances original answers to the following key questions. How
have private security companies become so prominent? What motivates
them? What is their relationship with the state? How can they be
controlled? And what does their increasingly ubiquitous presence in
twenty-first century society tell us about the future of security
provision?
