Private Security
By Pete Boettke
The Sunday NYT had a article discussing the use of private security forces in Iraq. What struck me as worthy of investigation is the demonstrated preference that when the US sends high ranking officials the private security forces are used rather than military.
What is the story behind that?
Does anyone know a really good history of the use of private military forces?
