Opis

The book examines the multifaceted phenomenon of dispute resolution technology. Focusing on increasing private enforcement, and their challenge of the nation-state’s monopoly on violence, Koulu argues that privatizing enforcement brings the inherent violence of law to light, constituting a dangerous grey area of conflict management.
