Privatizing Peacekeeping: The Regulatory Preconditions for an International Legal Regime on the Use of Private Military Firms in United Nations Peace Operations

This honours paper was supervised by Kevin Boreham. This paper aims to identify and analyse the preconditions for the regulation of private military firms, primarily in the context of their involvement in UN peacekeeping operations. It examines three tiers of legal regulation: international regulation, domestic regulation, and industry self-regulation. The legal preconditions for effective regulation are discussed in each tier.
