Abstract

Zadnjih nekaj desetletij se večina držav sveta sooča s problemom šibke državotvornosti in izgube monopola nad silo, kar izkoristijo nedržavni akterji, med katere uvrščamo tudi milice. Ker milice pridobivajo pri vprašanju zagotavljanja varnosti, sem se v tej diplomski nalogi lotil njihovega pomena. Delo je razdeljena v tri dele: v prvem delu sem se lotil vprašanja definicije in značilnosti milic, v drugem delu sem ugotavljal razloge za nastanek milic in njihov odnos do države ter obravnaval dinamiko milic, od njenega nastanka, rekrutov, vpliv na konflikt, nasilje nad civilisti, pa vse do povojne dinamike. V tretjem delu sem bolj podrobno obravnaval delovanje milice v Afganistanu, Mehiki, Indoneziji in Libiji. Ugotovitve so bile, da milice nastanjajo predvsem v šibkih državah, ki nimajo monopola nad uporabo sile. Milice so državi lahko koristne v boju proti nasprotnikom države, vendar če postanejo premočne, bodo začele spodkopavati njeno avtoriteto. Milice so dokaj koristne v boju proti gverilcem in upornikom, saj poznajo lokalno okolje in njene prebivalce. Države se dostikrat zanašajo na milice z namenom okrepitve svoje avtoritete v redko poseljenih in težko dostopnih krajih, ki jih oblasti varnostno težko pokrivajo.

Secondary title: The role of militias in ensuring and threatening peace
Secondary abstract: In the last few decades, most countries of the world are facing the problem of weak statehood and the loss of a monopoly on violence, which is being exploited by non-state actors, including the militia. As militias are becoming increasingly important in the security environment, in this thesis I have addressed the issue of their influence on this environment. This thesis is divided into three parts: in the first part I addressed the definition and characteristics of militias, in the second part I identified the reasons for the emergence of militias and their relationship with the state and discussed the dynamics of militias, its origin, recruits, impact on conflict, violence against civilians, and the post-war dynamics. In the third part, I discussed in more detail the activities of the militia in Afghanistan, Mexico, Indonesia and Libya. The findings were that militias emerge mainly in weak countries that do not have a monopoly on the use of force. Militias can be useful to the state in fighting the stateʼs opponents, but if they become too powerful, they will begin to undermine its authority. Militias are quite useful in the fight against guerrillas and rebels, as they know the local environment and its inhabitants. States often rely on militias to project their authority in sparsely populated and hard-to-reach places that are difficult for the authorities to cover.
