The German Army is in a process of transformation for about two decades now, these concerning mainly two processes: first, the transformation from a Cold War land-defence army to an intervention army deployed worldwide; second, the outsourcing of many formerly state-army-owned services to the private sector via different forms of cooperation. The article argues that the latest ongoing “structural reform” of the German Army enforced by the conservative-liberal government has pushed the door open for the army to become a private corporation by itself.
