This blog aspires to provide perceptive and illuminating analyses of selected international security issues, in a way analogous to a probe: by penetrating deep into the core of the matter with surgical precision, and transmitting a 360° inside view. It will start with the private military/security industry and its far-reaching political, ethical and normative implications.
