It focuses on their institutional features and functions, including material and human resources, and uses case studies from Europe, the Middle East and North Africa to illustrate these characteristics in different contexts. The overall development of gendarmeries has been a somewhat paradoxical one. On the one hand, most of these forces have witnessed a considerable expansion, and come to assume an increasingly prominent role in addressing many of the currently most important security challenges, ranging from border control and counterterrorism to public order tasks in international peace operations. On the other hand, there has also been a trend towards the demilitarization of gendarmeries, which in some European countries has ultimately led to their dissolution and integration into the civilian police. The paper suggests an explanation of these seemingly contradictory developments with reference to two broad and at least partly opposing trends: the convergence of internal and external security agendas, which to a large extent is a post-Cold War phenomenon; and the demilitarization of internal security, which is a more long-term historical trend and part of the more general democratization process. Based on this analysis, the paper predicts that in the long run gendarmeries are likely to be further demilitarized, eventually losing their formal military status, although in the context of international peace operations militarized gendarmerie forces are expected to play an increasingly significant part. 606 $aPolitics & government$2bicssc 606 $aWarfare & defence$2bicssc 610 $asecurity sector reform 610 $agood governance 610 $agendarmerie 610 $apolice 610 $aparamilitary 615 7$aPolitics & government 615 7$aWarfare & defence 700 $aLutterbeck$b Derek$0902812 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910289340603321 996 $aThe Paradox of Gendarmeries$94320102 997 $aUNINA
