Opis:
The goal of this paper is to present and explain the relation between private military companies (PMC) activities and the privatization of armed conflicts (wars) in the second decade of the XXI century. Especially the influence of PMC on international security. Many researchers claim that along with the depletion of energy resources, the role of such transnational actors as the PMC’s will rise. However their role is visible already. The post-9/11 wars in Afghanistan and Iraq prompted an exponential growth in the private military companies, increasing not only the sheer size of the industry but the types of services as well. Therefore the author will conduct a short analysis of this specific international relations actor and his effect on international security in the second decade of the XXI century. The literature dedicated to this issue is vast, and mainly Anglo-Saxon (for example the publications of Peter Singer and Carlos Ortiz). Along with documents and analysis from conflict and international peace (ex. SIPRI) and energy security (ex. Center for Strategic & International Studies ) research centers they will be the foundation of this analysis.

Opis:
The article explores combat related Private Military Companies (PMCs) that are authorised to engage in the forefront of the battlefield as dedicated force multipliers. To supplement empirical data with qualitative observation, the methodology applies the case study and observation method. Considering assistance in conflict termination as a dependent variable, the methodology evaluates the case study of Executive Outcomes in Sierra Leone and, to impose a framework for observation, deconstructs that case with seven independent variables: competence, effectiveness, flexibility, field cooperation with conventional forces, cost efficiency, impact on military and the state-to-PMC balance. The methodology indicates what factors were prevalent in effective conflict management and what indicators entailed chal- lenges. The results advocate for the competence, flexibility, effectiveness and cooperation with armed forces to be deemed conclusive in positive PMC engagement, whereas the cost efficiency, impact on conventional military and the state-to-PMC balance require improvement. Since governments have continued to be hesitant (justified either by financial, geopolitical or social incen- tives) towards overseas military operations where asymmetric warfare is taking place, PMCs stepped in to fill the se- curity void. Therefore, this paper argues that PMCs are here to stay; however, the literature hasn’t rigorously ex- plored the subject matter to determine whether indicators of success and failure exist to evaluate the PMC outcome. This paper also precipitates natural outgrowth in the scholarship by composing the benchmark that synthesises relevant data.
