SUMMARY

Authoritarian states remind us how repressive state monopoly on the use of force can be. Nonetheless, as imperfect as they are, the state still has the best potential to provide inclusive security as a public good. Whether in the United States or in fragile and conflict affected states, hybrid or mosaic security arrangements do not provide a durable and sustainable solution to insecurity.
