Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The first book dedicated to the sociology of privatized security, this collection studies the important global trend of shifting security from public to private hands and the associated rise of Private Military and Security Companies (PMSCs) and their contractors. The volume first explores the trend itself, making important historical and theoretical revisions to the existing social science of private security.

Zustand: Sehr gut.
