Softcover. Condition: Fine. Abnutzung / Risse - leicht. Some have claimed that "War is too important to be left to the generals," but P. W. Singer questions, "What about the business executives?" Moving beyond traditional mercenaries, corporations now offer skills and services once reserved for state militaries. Their offerings…include trained commando teams and strategic advice from generals. This emerging "Privatized Military Industry" comprises hundreds of companies, thousands of employees, and billions in revenue. These firms have engaged in conflicts across Africa, Asia, the Balkans, and Latin America, increasingly becoming integral to U.S. military operations. Private corporations, driven by profit, now influence the trajectory of national and international conflicts, yet the implications remain largely unexamined. Singer provides a comprehensive account of the military services industry, detailing its operations and the various types of military providers, including tactical troops, military consultants, and support companies that offer logistics, intelligence, and engineering. While the privatization of warfare introduces new capabilities and efficiencies, it also raises significant concerns regarding democracy, ethics, management, human rights, and national security.

Softcover. Condition: Fine. Leichte Rillen / Abschürfungen / Risse / Knicke; Gebrochener Buchrücken. 2026. Een nieuwe supermacht, The Directorate, is in China aan de macht gekomen. Niet lang daarna wordt er vanaf een ruimtestation van The Directorate, op ruim 300 kilometer van de aarde, met een laser een vitale communicatiesatel…liet van de VS verwoest. Met als gevolg dat het defensiesysteem van het land buiten werking is. Vervolgens vinden er over de hele wereld gecoördineerde aanvallen plaats en wordt het Amerikaans grondgebied binnengedrongen door een bataljon aan tanks en drones en is Hawaii binnen de kortste keren bezet gebied. Maar er is een schip dat de dans tijdens de gevechten ternauwernood ontspringt. Kapitein Jamie Simmons wordt als held onthaalt na zijn schip in veiligheid te hebben gebracht en aan land af te wachten terwijl een oudere generatie schepen, de zogenaamde spookvloot, gevechtsklaar gemaakt worden volgens de 21e eeuwse normen. Het fascinerende Spookvloot is gebaseerd op de kennis van de auteurs op het gebied van hypermoderne militaire ontwikkelingen en technologieën. Ze beschrijven hoe hedendaagse technologieën in volgende generaties gebruikt zullen gaan worden, op manieren waar zelfs Q en James Bond niet van durven dromen.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Some have claimed that "War is too important to be left to the generals," but P. W. Singer asks "What about the business executives?" Breaking out of the guns-for-hire mold of traditional mercenaries, corporations now sell skills and services that until recently only state militaries possessed. Their p…roducts range from trained commando teams to strategic advice from generals. This new "Privatized Military Industry" encompasses hundreds of companies, thousands of employees, and billions of dollars in revenue. Whether as proxies or suppliers, such firms have participated in wars in Africa, Asia, the Balkans, and Latin America. More recently, they have become a key element in U.S. military operations. Private corporations working for profit now sway the course of national and international conflict, but the consequences have been little explored. In this book, Singer provides the first account of the military services industry and its broader implications. Corporate Warriors includes a description of how the business works, as well as portraits of each of the basic types of companies: military providers that offer troops for tactical operations; military consultants that supply expert advice and training; and military support companies that sell logistics, intelligence, and engineering. In an updated edition of P. W. Singer's classic account of the military services industry and its broader implications, the author describes the continuing importance of that industry in the Iraq War. This conflict has amply borne out Singer's argument that the privatization of warfare allows startling new capabilities and efficiencies in the ways that war is carried out. At the same time, however, Singer finds that the introduction of the profit motive onto the battlefield raises troubling questions--for democracy, for ethics, for management, for human rights, and for national security.
