High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Violent non-state actor (VNSA) refers to any organization that uses illegal violence (i.e. force not officially approved of by the state) to reach its goals, thereby contesting the monopoly on violence of the state. The term has been used in several papers published by the United States military.Nation-states were characterized in 1919 by Max Weber as having a "monopoly on violence" within a territory. Phil Williams, in an overview article, argues that "in the 21st century, the state monopoly on violence is being reduced to a convenient fiction. Relatively few of the sovereign states of the United Nations can truly claim a monopoly on force within their territorial borders." Williams points out that while Europe benefited from the "state-building impetus of the total wars of the 20th century", other parts of the world did not undergo that cementing experience.
