Abstract
Scholars, NGOs, business, parliaments and governments are discussing whether private military companies (PMCs), which are numerous and offer quite diversified services, could contribute to peacekeeping missions, which face an immense lack of personnel. The article debates some of the triggers which have advanced the discussion and identifies several pros and cons regarding the contribution of PMCs to peacekeeping missions. In addition, discussions that took place in four selected countries are outlined. It is conceivable that future debates will not revolve around whether peacekeeping tasks should be outsourced, but which duties, with whom and what monitoring and control tools should be applied.
