Abstract

Posljednja tri desetljeća svjedoče ubrzanom razvoju privatnih vojnih i sigurnosnih kompanija (PVSK). Djelovanje PVSK-a u situacijama oružanih sukoba unutar kojih obavljaju razne funkcije koje su izvorno pripadale isključivo državnom prerogativu signalizira jasnu promjenu u modernoj konceptualizaciji države kao primarnog nositelja sile. U radu se analizira relevantno zakonodavstvo primjenjivo na PVSK-e koje djeluju u situacijama oružanih sukoba, s posebim naglaskom na MHP. Ispituje se pravni status osoblja PVSK-a prema MHP-u s ciljem pojašnjenja pravne dopustivosti izravnog sudjelovanja u neprijateljstvima. Identificiraju se okolnosti u kojima protupravno ponašanje može dovesti do odgovornosti države, kompanije i pojedinca. Analizira se aktualni rusko-ukrajinski sukob u kojem je poseban naglasak postavljen na prisutnost privatnih aktera koji obavljaju funkcije koje izvorno pripadaju redovnim vojnim snagama. Naposljetku, analizira se Montreux dokument i druge vrijedne inicijative sigurnosnog sekora čija je svrha postaviti standarde koji će voditi države u razvoju nacionalnih zakonodavstava i sigurnosnih politika za PVSK sektor.
