Abstract

Práce se zabývá problematikou privátních armád formou případové studie americké soukromé vojenské společnosti Blackwater a ruské soukromé vojenské společnosti Wagner Group. U obou společností jsou pokryty jejich vznik, operace a dopady činnosti. Cíle práce jsou: zhodnotit nasazení obou vojenských společností; zjistit, zda se jedná o efektivní nástroje státní moci; porovnat působení těchto organizací z hlediska loajality a morálky jejích příslušníků s Machiavelliho poznatky o válce; s ohledem na teorii spravedlivé války určit, jestli příslušníci těchto organizací lze identifikovat spíše jako žoldáky bojující pro vlastní obohacení, nebo bojovníky spravedlivé války.
