In War, Entrepreneurs, and the State, Jeff Fynn-Paul (Leiden)
assembles an internationally acclaimed selection of authors to push
forward the debate on the role of entrepreneurs in making war and
building states in Europe and the Ottoman Empire. Topics covered
include logistics, supply, recruitment, and the finance of war.
Chapters have been carefully commissioned with an eye towards
complementarity. In an introduction co-written with Marjolein 't
Hart and Griet Vermeesch, Fynn-Paul challenges existing discourses
of military entrepreneurialism. A new benchmark is proposed: did
states choose to work with entrepreneurs, or to restrict their
activities and subvert the market? From the introduction and the
individual chapters, a new more expansive vision of the military
entrepreneur emerges. Contributors are: Carlos Alvarez-Nogal,
Pepijn Brandon, William Caferro, Stephen Conway, Thomas Goossens,
Aaron Graham, Rhoads Murphey, David Parrott, Helen Paul, Guy
Rowlands, Kahraman Sakul, Marjolein 't Hart, Andrea Thiele, and
Rafael Torres Sanchez.
