Walsh, Matthew Seegers, Annette International Relations Includes abstract. Includes bibliographical references. "The Role of PMCs (Private Military Companies) in Counter-insurgency Combat in Afghanistan (2001 to 2010)" aims to identify the primary combat roles which PMCs played while in support of U.S. forces during the counterinsurgency campaign in Afghanistan from 2001-2010. It first provides background on a number of issues, including U.S. legal and policy themes regarding PMCs, their previous use in combat situations while supporting U.S. foreign policy goals, and the insurgency and counterinsurgency campaign in Afghanistan. 2015-01-10T13:29:29Z 2015-01-10T13:29:29Z 2012 Master Thesis Masters MSocSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11958 eng application/pdf Department of Political Studies Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
