- W4384940213 abstract "Abstract This chapter seeks to explain the success of the mercenary operations examined in the previous chapters. It is a well-documented fact that most mercenary operations fail. What this chapter explains is that particular norms, rules, and decision-making procedures that impose tight control over these mercenary operations are the prime factors on those occasions where they succeed. The reason tight control is essential is that it transforms the capacity to work into meaningful output, and by association into successful results. Without tight control, mercenary output is reduced and therefore unlikely to meet the geostrategic and operational objectives set by whatever government agency is running the mercenary operation. However, achieving tight control is not straightforward. In our cases, it is achieved through adopting certain norms, abiding by certain rules, and following certain decision-making procedures. Moreover, by cross-referencing between these three operations, the chapter is able to identify which norms, rules, and decision-making procedures dominated in these operations, facilitating their success. Again, there is very little in the extant literature that seeks to explain why some mercenary operations succeed, making this chapter unique." @default.
