Recent years have seen a growing role for private military
contractors in national and international security. To understand
the reasons for this, Elke Krahmann examines changing models of the
state, the citizen and the soldier in the UK, the US and Germany.
She focuses on both the national differences with regard to the
outsourcing of military services to private companies and their
specific consequences for the democratic control over the
legitimate use of armed force. Tracing developments and debates
from the late eighteenth century to the present, she explains the
transition from the centralized warfare state of the Cold War era
to the privatized and fragmented security governance, and the
different national attitudes to the privatization of force.
