Abstract

The article presents a discussion of the role of private military or security companies (PMSCs), adapted from the research project entitled "Supervision Without Vision," by Lucas Roorda. It explores the classification of the PMSC industry. It discusses how the risk society and risk aversion culture transform the security industry based on the state's point of view. It also tackles the national and international legal arrangements that govern the private security sector.
