In this age of asymmetric warfare, battles are fought more and more
against armed groups of opponents such as terrorists, insurgents,
or transnational criminal organizations. This text is the first to
categorize armed groups and analyze their characteristics in a
systematic way to provide a thorough overview of all types of armed
groups and the role they play in today's security environment.
Drawing on international case studies and histories, the work
analyzes the objectives, strategies, and internal composition of
armed groups and the environments that foster them. It demonstrates
that armed groups often behave in an "hybrid" fashion, be it the
criminal actions terrorists groups take to fund their goals or the
role terrorist actions play in criminal organizations. As such
dividing lines blur, governments need to figure out how, where, and
when these armed groups are operating in zones of conflict or
peace, as well as their motivations, structures, and ultimate
objectives. This thorough and groundbreaking study will provide
students with a strategic view of who armed groups are, how to
analyze them, and what geopolitical and geostrategic factors
influence their origins and operations.
