Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:The aim of this study is to examine the presence of non-state armed groups during internal and international armed conflicts. The focus of this thesis is to find a definition of non-state armed groups and apply it to the Houthis as part of the Yemeni conflict in order to understand the role that these groups can achieve in a real conflict. We chose to study the case of Yemen because it involves both state and non-state actors, making its analysis complex. Initially, which was an internal conflict, but it has become international in nature. Throughout this thesis, we will conduct a structural analysis of the conflict in order to understand the role of each of the parties involved and the eventual outcome of the conflict.
