Non-Traditional Conflicts, Non-State Actors and Use of Proxy Forces in Modern Warfare

In recent years, we have been observing the growing involvement and significance of non-state actors and proxy forces in contemporary warfare. Pursuing their own interests, or being employed by foreign states, proxy forces or local non-state actors can be added to a myriad of elements and factors that shape fewer and fewer contemporary traditional and binary conflicts, which consist of asymmetric, irregular, unconventional or hybrid characteristics. This field of study lags behind the reality often hidden behind the modern fog of war, or disinformation; therefore, as guest editors of a special issue of the Security and Defence Quarterly, we would like to invite you to help us understand the discussed phenomenon better by contributing to this unique edition of the international academic journal.

Therefore, it is our honour to invite you to contribute to a special edition of the Security and Defence Quarterly. The working title of the incoming special edition is “Non-Traditional Conflicts, Non-State Actors and Use of Proxy Forces in Modern Warfare”. The proposals for this special edition may focus on the issue from a variety of theoretical and disciplinary perspectives of security studies.
