This book argues that state-building, as it is currently conceived,
does not work. In the 1990s, interventionist policies challenged
the rights of individual states to self-governance. Today,
non-western states are more likely to be feted by international
institutions offering programmes of poverty-reduction,
democratisation and good governance. States without the right of
self-government will always lack legitimate authority. The
international policy agenda focuses on bureaucratic mechanisms,
which can only institutionalise divisions between the West and the
non-West and are unable to overcome the social and political
divisions of post-conflict states. Highlighting the dangers of
current policy - including the redefinition of sovereignty, and the
subsequent erosion of ties linking power and accountability.
