Private Contractors and the Reconstruction of Iraq
by Christopher Kinsey
Christopher Kinsey is probably at the leading edge of studying this industry. He is a lecturer at Kings College in London, and at the Joint Services Command and Staff College, which is like the university for the armed forces. In this book he is looking at the effect private contractors are having in places like Iraq and Afghanistan. Iraq really was unlike any other war in our lifetime…the private contractors on the ground were roughly the same size as the US army.
