This timely Handbook examines the causes, costs and consequences of
state fragility, advancing key debates in the field. Demonstrating
the multidimensionality of fragility by applying diverse theories
and methodologies, it provides new insights on effective policy
development and application in the context of fragile states.
Drawing on a wide variety of disciplines, approaches and case
studies, the Handbook pays particular attention to the root causes
and drivers of fragility. It centres authority, legitimacy and the
citizen-state relationship alongside state capacity, revealing the
flaws in the reasoning behind previous Western policy interventions
in fragile states. Chapters address a broad range of issues facing
fragile states, from fragility traps, refugees and urbanisation to
recent events including the Covid-19 pandemic, the Russia-Ukraine
war and the increasing pressures of climate change. Ultimately, the
Handbook advances the state of both academic and policy knowledge
on state fragility, revealing the deep links between the two. This
Handbook will be a valuable resource for scholars and students of
political science, international relations, development studies,
economics, and sociology. It will also benefit practitioners
seeking to improve the effectiveness of their policy proposals.
