Viac o knihe
Focusing on the evolution of mercenary roles since 1945, the book explores their operations primarily in weak Third World nations, where they have been involved in conflicts and supported drug cartels. It highlights their notorious reputation for greed and brutality during events like the Congo crisis. The emergence of mercenary corporations in the 1990s, such as Executive Outcomes and Sandline, marks a significant shift, as these entities possess military expertise and government backing, posing a new and greater threat than individual mercenaries of the past.
