Violent non-state actors (VNSA) often serve a destabilizing role in
nearly every humanitarian and political crisis faced by the
international community. As non-state armed groups gain greater
access to resources and networks through global interconnectivity,
they have come to dominate the terrain of illegal trade in drugs,
guns, and humans. Warlords Rising arms those confronting the
mounting challenge by delivering an innovative, interdisciplinary
framework of analysis designed to improve understanding of
non-state adversaries in order to affect their development and
performance. Examining the utility of traditional theories of
deterrence and warfighting in light of the insight gained through
this interdisciplinary approach, the authors elevate the powerful
role of environmental shaping in group development, recast
deterrence in ecological terms, and lay out a strategy to defeat
non-state adversaries if necessary. Whether the goal is preventing,
coercing, or conquering, the framework of analysis presented here
is designed to be universal, allowing for structured analysis
across regions, types, and functions of non-state actors and
providing the decision maker and policy maker witha variety of
modes and methods of intervention.
