Tambi?n puede referirse a alguien que sigue el ideal de que la guerra es necesaria y que tiene los medios y la autoridad para declararla.

[27] Traducido por la autora: ["…] there is a general tendency to postulate that the non-formal markets, whether in Africa or Eastern Europe and Asia, are the result of a combination of changing political regimes, social transitions, and economic opportunism. The belief is that as these countries settle down in the course of normal state development, their economies will become increasingly defined by state-regulated institutions. In this way, while illegal goods and service rings (i.e., mercenaries and prostitution) will always exist in the countries of the world, they compromise a marginal part of the world??s real economy", Carolyn Nordstrom, Shadows and Sovereigns, Theory, Culture & Society, Vol. 17, No. 4, 2000, p?gs. 35-54.

[65] Traducido por la autora: "Violence is now deliberately targeted at civilians rather than armed groups, and at entire groups rather than individuals. In the conflicts in Liberia, Sierra Leone, Rwanda, Mozambique, Northern Uganda, Sudan and Angola, violence has taken appalling forms. Mutilation, torture of women and children, violent rituals and the forcible involvement of relatives, children and spouses in killing and rape are used as a means of waging war primarily by militia groups and by some state proxies. In some instances, such violence is part of ritual that binds militia groups together. Extreme violence can be used as a means of humiliation or revenge. More frequently, it is used as a means of intimidation, as is the case with the Revolutionary United Front (RUF) in Sierra Leone. Here, mutilation was brutally applied as part of a strategy to stop people from voting or from gathering the harvest or to spread control over territory by sheer terror and fear, thus avoiding the need to fight".

[190] Traducido por la autora: To remove the source of conflict it is necessary to remove the prize which all actors are fighting for, that is, complete control of the state, its resources, and its population. The lower the stakes, the smaller and less violent the conflicts. From this it follows that the direction of change necessary to "save" sub-Saharan countries is towards decentralization. International agreements on development with autocratic leaders are doomed to failure. The international community should, therefore, pressure African countries to break the monopoly on power and resources which is concentrated in the hands of the few. Caleb Edwards.
